Description
Most flow tools show you a firehose. This one reads all 12,000 US stocks overnight and keeps the few worth trading, ranked with a clear level on each, before the open. Free, no signup: yesterday's top options flow, a congress trades feed, dealer gamma and a page for every big ticker. Paid: $20/month with a 7-day free trial. It adds the nightly ranking and a trade plan on each idea.

Could you build this?
Partial While the front-end dashboard and Congress trade scrapers are straightforward, processing and computing real-time dealer gamma and high-volume options flow across all 12,000 US stocks overnight requires specialized financial engineering and costly market data infrastructure.
What it would actually take: Requires high-grade historical and real-time market data feeds (e.g., OPRA data via Polygon, CBOE, or Theta Data) alongside a distributed pipeline (Python/Celery or Go) to calculate Greeks, second-order Greeks (dealer gamma exposure), and detect unusual options flow across thousands of tickers. The hard parts are the substantial cost of full options chain data feeds and domain-specific options math to accurately estimate dealer gamma profiles.
