Calculation accuracy review

  • Improved We audited every number the terminal computes, line by line, against hand-worked examples and live market data. This release ships the corrections. Most figures are unchanged, but a number of them will now read differently from what you saw yesterday — the specifics are listed below so you can see exactly what moved and why. Where a figure changed, the old one was wrong.

Risk Manager

  • Fixed Net Theta and Net Vega were reported per share rather than per contract, making them 100x smaller than they should have been. A book decaying $250 a day displayed as $2.50. Both now show the correct per-contract dollar figures.
  • Fixed Stress-test scenarios treated a relative volatility shock (for example “IV Crush −50%”) as if it were half of one volatility point. The volatility leg of every scenario was understated by roughly three orders of magnitude and is now calculated from each position's own implied volatility.
  • Fixed Risk Level returned the same value for every portfolio. Its delta-exposure input cancelled out position size entirely, so a one-lot and a thousand-lot scored identically, and the decay and volatility inputs were too small to ever register. Delta exposure is now delta-adjusted notional against capital, the thresholds have been recalibrated, and all three levels are reachable.
  • Fixed Time to expiration lost the intraday remainder, so every position was priced one day short of its actual life during market hours.

Strategy Lab

  • Fixed Max Loss was read off the edge of the payoff chart rather than from the strategy itself. Undefined-risk positions such as a naked short call reported a tidy finite loss instead of unlimited; they now correctly show unlimited, and Risk:Reward shows as undefined.
  • Fixed More importantly, positions whose worst case sits far from the current price were badly understated. A short 220 put taken in for $4.00 reported a maximum loss of about $4,000 when the true figure, with the stock at zero, is $21,600. Because the Sizing tab divides your risk budget by this number, it was suggesting materially more contracts than your stated risk allowed. Both are now correct.
  • Fixed Long options reported a finite maximum profit taken from the chart's edge; they now show unlimited. Defined-risk spreads and iron condors were already correct and are unchanged.
  • Fixed Scenario rows for larger moves reported the payoff at the edge of the chart rather than at the price asked for, which affected any position whose strikes sit away from the current price. They now extrapolate correctly.
  • Fixed Corrected two captions that described the net Greeks as per-contract when they are per-share, and contradicted each other within the same panel. The numbers were always per-share and have not changed.

Options calculators (Terminal and the free calculator pages)

  • Fixed The Terminal's built-in calculators and the free standalone calculator pages each carried their own copy of the same maths, so both had the same faults. Every fix below is applied to both, and the two now return identical figures for identical inputs — they are driven by one shared implementation.
  • Fixed Every Greek was computed at a fixed 30% volatility assumption, so the premium you entered changed the profit and loss figures but not one Greek — two very different premiums on the same strike returned identical Delta, Gamma, Theta and Vega. Each leg's implied volatility is now solved from the premium you type, and each calculator states the volatility it derived. Where a premium falls outside the range any volatility could produce, the card says so instead of quietly assuming.
  • Fixed Net Vega was shown per share while Net Theta beside it was per contract, both prefixed with a dollar sign, making Vega appear 100x smaller. All dollar-denominated Greeks are now per contract.
  • Fixed The Greeks Calculator and the IV Calculator returned Theta figures 100x apart for the same option. They now agree.
  • Fixed Assignment probability used option delta, which overstates the chance of finishing in the money and ignored the premium entirely. It now uses the correct probability, and the iron condor's probability of profit has been corrected the same way.
  • Fixed The Debit Spread calculator drew an inverted payoff chart — a Bull Call Spread rendered as a put position. The metrics above the chart were always correct.
  • Fixed Calendar spreads priced both legs at a single volatility, which removed the term-structure difference the strategy exists to trade. Each expiration is now priced at its own volatility.
  • Fixed The covered-call “Monthly Return” was the return over whatever days-to-expiration you entered, accurate only at 30 days. It is now labelled for the period actually used.
  • Fixed Breakeven prices were interpolated from a value rounded to one decimal place and then displayed to two, showing more precision than the figure held.

Same-day (0DTE) options

  • Fixed Time to expiration for same-day options was measured on a trading-hours clock while every other expiration used a calendar clock. The result was that a 0DTE contract was credited with more time remaining than a 1DTE contract, so its gamma read about 17% below the strike next to it instead of roughly twice as high. Every same-day gamma, exposure and decay figure changes as a result.
  • Fixed Same-day net gamma was calculated with a different formula from the Gamma Exposure module, leaving the two panels publishing the same label in different units. They now agree.
  • Fixed Gamma was recalculated from an averaged volatility with a 20% fallback rather than using the value supplied with the chain — on the one expiration where a 20% assumption is furthest from reality. The supplied value is now used.
  • Fixed Implied volatility at very high levels displayed 100x too small; a 1000% reading near the pin showed as 10%.

Index tickers

  • Fixed For cash indices such as SPX, several figures were measured against the forward price for the expiration being viewed rather than the index level. On a 30-day expiration that forward sits roughly 18 points above spot. The expected-move band is now centred on the index level, so it brackets the price shown beside it; strike-level intrinsic and extrinsic values, the volatility smile's centre point, and the per-expiration Gamma Exposure readout are all corrected. Individual stocks and ETFs were never affected.
  • Fixed Index gamma was rounded to four decimal places before being used in further calculations. Because index gamma is very small, this left roughly one significant figure and dropped some strikes to zero entirely, removing them from exposure totals. Full precision is now retained.

Volatility analytics

  • Fixed The volatility cone and Volatility Risk Premium calculated realised volatility with a different estimator from the historical volatility shown next to them. All realised-volatility figures now use one method.
  • Fixed Expected-move estimates derived from historical volatility mixed a calendar-day horizon with a trading-day year, making them about 20% too large.
  • Fixed The volatility mispricing heatmap used two different variance conventions within the same calculation, leaving one branch about 2.5% below the other on identical data.
  • Fixed The IV/HV screener's spread percentage was derived from two already-rounded inputs, which at lower volatility levels moved the result by more than a full percentage point and could change the ranking. It is now computed before rounding.
  • Fixed Historical volatility, chain implied volatility and forward volatility all guessed their own unit from the size of the number. Very high readings were displayed 100x too small and a genuine 120% forward volatility showed as 1.2%. Units are now explicit throughout.

Gamma Exposure and Greeks

  • Fixed In the Greeks Heatmap's Net view the per-contract toggle multiplied values that already represented total exposure, overstating the chart, its hover values, the statistics strip and both rails by 100x.
  • Fixed The Gamma Exposure methodology note described the dealer positioning assumption backwards. The calculations follow the standard industry convention and are unchanged, but anyone who read the note and interpreted positioning from it had the sign the wrong way round.
  • Fixed Deep in-the-money puts at far strikes displayed a delta of 0.00 instead of approximately −1.00, because a genuine zero reading on the paired call was treated as missing data.
  • Fixed Where an expiration date cannot be read, the 30-day assumption used in its place is now recorded rather than applied silently.

IV Rank

  • Fixed Where an implied-volatility rank is unavailable for a ticker, the platform substitutes a rank built from realised volatility. This was presented as an implied-volatility rank with a tooltip that said so. The substitute is still shown — it is more useful than a dash — but it is now marked with an asterisk and the tooltip states what it actually measures and over what window. A legitimate rank of zero, meaning implied volatility is at its one-year low, was also being discarded as missing; it is now shown.

Reliability

  • Fixed Fixed the root cause of a class of failure where a module could render blank. When a calculation produced an undefined value, the response contained a token that browsers reject outright, so the whole panel failed to load rather than showing a gap. This was possible on any endpoint and had previously been patched in one place only; it is now handled centrally, and no route can emit it.

Consistency review: one calculation, one answer

  • Improved Several analytics were implemented more than once in different parts of the platform, which meant two screens could show different numbers for the same thing. We consolidated each one onto a single implementation. Where the versions disagreed, the more rigorous one won — so a handful of figures have moved, and they are listed below.

Gamma flip and call/put walls

  • Fixed Call and put walls were not constrained to the correct side of the current price, so a stock that had already traded through its heaviest call strike could show that strike as resistance overhead. Walls are now taken from at or above the price for calls and at or below it for puts. On liquid large-caps this moved the level by one to two strikes; on names whose heaviest strikes already sat on the correct side, nothing changed.
  • Fixed Three panes each had their own gamma-flip calculation. Two of them predated a correction we made to the third, so the same ticker could show a flip near the money in one place and far below it in another. All of them now use the corrected version, which ignores the small crossings that deep out-of-the-money gamma produces and picks the crossing nearest the price.
  • Fixed The same-day options view reported the current price as the gamma flip whenever it could not find a genuine crossing, which read as “the flip is exactly here” rather than “there is no flip today”. It now shows a dash.
  • Improved The sanity check that hides an implausible flip level — one sitting more than 50% away from the price — was missing from the Greeks Exposure pane. It now applies everywhere, and the suppressed value explains itself on hover.

Greeks Exposure and Greeks Heatmap

  • Fixed Switching Greeks Exposure to the Delta-Adjusted model redrew the chart but left the headline Gamma Flip and Net GEX figures on the unadjusted numbers. Both now follow the selected model, and the label says which one you are looking at.
  • Improved The Greeks Heatmap’s key levels are based on open interest, not gamma, but were labelled “CW” and “PW” — the same labels the gamma walls use elsewhere. They are now “OI Walls”, so two panes showing different quantities no longer look like they disagree.

Term structure and calendar spreads

  • Fixed The relationship between front-month and back-month volatility was calculated four different ways across the platform, including one that read volatility in the wrong unit — a hundred times too small — while another pane reported the same field correctly. All of them now use one calculation.
  • Improved That calculation now includes true forward volatility: the volatility being priced for the window between the two expirations, rather than only the ratio between them. Calendar spread, calendar ratio and the volatility arbitrage scan all show it, and flag when the figure implies an event inside that window.

Volatility Arbitrage scans

  • Fixed The calendar spread, put-call parity and butterfly scans were requesting option prices under the wrong internal field names. Each one failed silently and returned an empty list every time it ran, so these three scans had never produced a result. They now work. If you had concluded there was never anything to find here, please look again.
  • Improved The calendar scan also used to compare only neighbouring expirations, so a spread between a one-week and a six-week expiry was invisible to it. It now considers every viable pair, and runs considerably faster because it prices only the pairs that already qualify.

Screeners

  • Fixed The high-theta screener had two separate faults that each made it return nothing: it read bid prices under the wrong field name, and it narrowed to the first few expirations before filtering for the 20-to-45-day window it wanted, which on most tickers left nothing to scan. It now returns results, and ignores penny-priced options whose decay-to-premium ratio is an artefact of rounding rather than an opportunity.
  • Fixed The Mean Reversion screen estimated its z-score by dividing by a fixed number that stood in for a standard deviation, rather than measuring the spread across the market. It now uses the same measured calculation as the Relative Value module, so the two agree on how unusual a ticker is. Expect fewer but better-founded matches.
  • Improved Vol Pairs quietly paired a rich name with a cheap one from an unrelated sector when it could not find a match inside the sector. Those are two unrelated positions rather than a relative-value trade, so pairs are now sector-only, and both pairing screens rank by the same measure.

Earnings straddle

  • Improved The straddle hit rate was calculated separately in two places from the same underlying quarters. It is now calculated once, using the stricter rule that ignores quarters with no usable date, and the figure shows how many quarters it is based on.
3 changes

Earnings Calendar accuracy

  • Fixed Fixed an issue where the implied earnings move shown for some tickers was overstated — it was pulling a wider-window volatility figure instead of the event-only implied move. Corrected across the Earnings Calendar, Screener, and Earnings & Events desk.
  • Fixed Reconciled earnings dates for the largest-cap tickers (AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL, AMZN, META, NVDA, TSLA, and other mega-caps) against a second data source, fixing cases where the calendar showed a date a day off from the company's actual reporting date.

Newsletter

  • Improved Newsletter issues emailed to subscribers now include the full article inline, styled to match the site — no more truncated teaser with a click-through link.

5 changes

Terminal — Guided Workflows

  • Added New Guided Workflows — step-by-step rails that walk you through a trade idea end to end. The first, Premium Seller, takes you from screening for high-IV-rank names through validating the setup, structuring an iron condor or short put at the suggested strikes, and building it in Strategy Lab.

  • Improved Public site redesigned (home, pricing, features, and more) with a new dark, trading-desk visual style.
7 changes

Greeks Heatmap overhaul

  • Improved Net Greeks exposure is now open-interest-weighted (real dollar exposure across every positioned contract) instead of a simple call-minus-put figure, which was mathematically close to meaningless for delta, gamma, vega, vanna, and charm.

  • Fixed The header price no longer freezes between auto-refreshes on ticker pages.
  • Fixed IV Intelligence's Price & Returns card could show a price a few seconds out of sync with the header — now always matches.
  • Improved Skew Intelligence's "Contango" card renamed to "Term Structure" — it could show a "Backwardation" badge, which read as a contradiction under the old name.
2 changes

API documentation

  • Added New public documentation page at /docs/api for the API/MCP private beta — full reference for every endpoint, authentication, rate limits, and Claude/MCP tool usage.

Free tier

  • Improved Free accounts now get every tool on the platform, not just a limited subset — scoped to AAPL. Market-wide tools (Screener, Market Overview) remain part of a paid plan.

— Free trial & billing 3 changes
  • Added Quarterly billing option added at checkout, alongside monthly.
  • Improved Free accounts now see the full AAPL demo experience instead of a hard "Subscription Required" wall when visiting a tier-gated tool.

Earnings indicator (E badge)

  • Fixed The E badge on expiration pickers now marks only the first expiration that contains the next earnings event, instead of every expiration that follows. Cleaner visual signal across the Dashboard, IV Intelligence Strike-Level Analytics, and the global Option Chain
  • Improved Hover the E badge for a tooltip explaining what it represents

Screener earnings filters

  • Fixed "No Earn ≤ N days" and "Hide Post-Earnings" filters now correctly exclude every ticker reporting in the chosen window. Previously some mid-caps with upcoming earnings (e.g. AFRM, DKNG, HUBS, TTD) could slip through

IV Intelligence

  • Removed Strike Time Series tile temporarily removed from the Strike-Level Analytics deep dive while we rework the per-strike history pipeline. Will return in a future release

Free plan

  • Added Put IV and Call IV stay as separate curves per expiration in overlay mode (puts solid, calls dashed), so skew shape is visible at every selected tenor
  • Improved Default view opens with the primary expiration pre-selected, showing the classic put/call split with ATM line and 25Δ markers

Cross-panel compare overlays

  • Added Compare tickers chip row on IV Rank History, VRP History, IV Term Structure, and Smile History modals — add any symbol with Enter, remove with ×, up to 4 overlays per panel
  • Added IV percentile badge on each compare chip (Term Structure + IV Rank History) — shows where each ticker's current IV sits in its 1-year range at a glance
  • Added Spread view on Term Structure — toggle to see each overlay as a spread vs the primary ticker in volatility points; primary becomes a dashed zero reference
  • Improved Compare tickers are remembered across page refreshes and ticker switches, so a standard reference set (e.g., vs SPY, QQQ) stays in place
6 changes

Simulator — UX polish

  • Added New Live | Simulated chain toggle — after running a simulation, flip between live prices and simulated prices without re-running
  • Added Tip badge on the option chain header makes it obvious you can click any Mid price to add it as a leg; mobile users get a dedicated help banner
  • Improved Simulator starts with an empty strategy instead of auto-loading a straddle — less noise when you just want to explore the chain

  • Improved Mobile sizing and text contrast tuned on sim controls for better readability on small screens
7 changes

Screener — universal filters & polish

  • Added Market cap bucket selector replaces the large-cap toggle — choose All ($1B+), Mid ($2B–$10B), Large ($10B–$200B), or Mega ($200B+); applied server-side so the result limit isn't wasted on names outside your bucket
  • Added 'No Earn ≤Nd' filter excludes any ticker reporting earnings within the next N days — strips event risk from premium-selling screens like High IV Rank and High VRP
  • Added 'Hide Post-Earnings' tickbox drops names that reported in the past 5 days — removes the post-earnings IV-blowout distortion from IV-rank lists
  • Added Sector filter is now multi-select — pick any combination of sectors and the dropdown stays open for fast layering
  • Improved Min Opt Vol filter now applies server-side as well as client-side, so screens like Vol Pairs no longer waste their result limit on illiquid names that get post-filtered out
  • Improved Results table is taller — shows roughly 19 rows at a glance instead of 13, less scrolling on every screen
  • Fixed Strategy Builder action link in the row detail panel now opens the simulator with the correct ticker (was 404'ing on /strategy-builder/<ticker>)
8 changes

Screener bug fixes & polish

  • Fixed Vol Pairs screen now returns paired results — sort changed to preserve both rich and cheap tickers instead of truncating to only the most extreme side
  • Fixed Earnings This Week now picks up tickers whose earnings date is known but day-count field is missing — falls back to computing days from the earnings date
  • Fixed 'Within days' threshold and other screen thresholds now persist across tab switches and Apply clicks instead of resetting to the default

IV Shift — Bloomberg-Grade Smile Analysis (Pro)

  • Added New IV Shift page: plot the implied volatility smile for any expiration and compare it against previous dates to see exactly how the vol surface has changed
  • Added Same Term (constant-maturity) comparison mode: compares the same DTE at two dates, stripping out natural time decay to show pure vol regime shifts — equivalent to Bloomberg OVDV constant-maturity mode
  • Added X-Axis toggle: switch between Strike ($), Moneyness (% from spot), or Delta to normalise the smile for stock price moves and time effects
  • Added the ML forecast overlay: orange dashed line shows where IV 'should' be — strikes above the forecast are rich, below are cheap
  • Added 30-day percentile envelope: teal bands show where current IV sits relative to its recent range at each strike
  • Added Vol Seller Score: composite 0-100 gauge blending forecast divergence, IV percentile, IV-HV spread, and skew richness to identify premium-selling setups
  • Added Rich Strikes table: top 10 strikes ranked by composite richness score with live IV, forecast, envelope percentile, and volume/OI
  • Added Pre-built short premium structures: 25-delta strangle, put credit spread, call credit spread, and iron condor with real credits, POP, and max loss
  • Added Smile decomposition sparklines: 30-day history of Level (ATM height), Slope (put-call skew), and Curvature (wing convexity)
  • Added Term structure heatmap: IV change, richness, or percentile view across strikes and expirations in a single grid
  • Added Compare modes: Prev Close, 1W, 1M, Pre-Earnings, Pre-FOMC, or any custom date

Greeks Exposure improvements

  • Improved Greeks Exposure page updated with refined chart layouts and improved data presentation

IV Intelligence fixes

  • Improved IV Dashboard provider fixes for more reliable data loading
12 changes

Borrow Rates overhaul

  • Added Earnings date markers now appear on the borrow rate chart as blue dashed vertical lines — routine spikes at earnings are visible at a glance, and spikes away from earnings stand out as structural events
  • Added New 'What This Means' context panel below the chart dynamically explains current conditions: backwardation, extreme borrow, spike detection, earnings proximity, sector outlier, or normal state — with a secondary insight card when multiple conditions are active
  • Added Collapsible 'How to read this chart' guide explains each chart element (30d, 2yr, term spread, MA20, earnings markers) in plain language
  • Added Scanner filter row now includes a Moderate class button alongside Extreme, Hard, and Elevated
  • Added Share button added to the borrow rate chart — export and share borrow analysis the same way as other pages

  • Improved Loading state now uses the centered pulse spinner with 'Loading Borrow Rates…' text, matching the IV Intelligence experience
  • Improved Synthetic short cost now uses the live risk-free rate instead of a hardcoded 4.5% — values stay accurate as Treasury yields move
  • Improved Scorecard tooltips corrected: Put/Call Ratio now correctly says 'volume ratio' (not open interest), Synthetic Short Cost now describes the actual formula (borrow rate plus risk-free rate), and Squeeze Risk Score now explains the full 5-factor calculation
  • Improved Scanner table streamlined from 12 to 10 columns — removed two columns that were always empty in the bulk scan (borrow percentile and velocity), which are only computable on the single-ticker view
  • Improved Scanner detail rows now link to Greeks Exposure instead of the retired Volatility Lab page
  • Improved Scanner detail descriptions rewritten as factual borrow characteristics rather than trade suggestions
27 changes

Strike-Level Analytics in IV Intelligence (Pro)

  • Added The full Term Vol Analytics deep dive is now embedded directly in the IV Intelligence page Pro section — no more bouncing between two pages for per-expiration analysis
  • Added Per-expiration drill-down loads on demand when you scroll to the Pro section: full strike-level mispricing chain (calls left, strike center, puts right, 19 columns of analytics including theoretical fair value, dollar mispricing, probability edge, and vol spread vs term-matched HV)
  • Added Two view modes inside the deep dive: Mispricing Chain (default — full chain table with sortable columns and Top Opportunities cards) and Charts & Greeks (6-chart grid: Vol Smile, Strike Mispricing, Greeks Profile, Open Interest, Theta Efficiency, Historical Context)
  • Added Earnings Volatility appears as a ticker-wide context banner above the per-expiration drill-down, showing next earnings date, implied move, average historical move, and last 4 moves
  • Improved Strike chain table auto-scrolls to the at-the-money strike, sorts by any column on header click, and color-codes rich rows red and cheap rows green
  • Improved The standalone Term Vol Analytics page (/vol-term-analytics) still works for direct links — both URLs serve the same experience
  • Removed Term Vol Analytics has been removed from the sidebar nav since it now lives inside IV Intelligence
  • Removed 9 unfinished placeholder tiles in the old Term Lab section have been retired in favour of the integrated Strike-Level Analytics view

Volatility Overview redesign

  • Improved Premium tile order rebalanced: Vol Smile, IV Term Structure, IV Rank History, VRP History, Historical Volatility, Smile History, IV vs HV (VRP), Vol Cone — grouped so the most-used tiles lead and history tiles flow naturally
  • Improved Skew & Curvature tile rebuilt with a headline slope-vs-1Y-average card, percentile zone bar, forecast row, and curvature row — replaces the dense 10-metric grid
  • Improved Relative Value tile redesigned with two headline ratio cards (IV/SPY, IV/HV xErn) showing live delta vs historical average plus percentile bars vs SPY and sector ETF
  • Improved Market Context tile rebuilt: beta with 1M drift indicator, paired correlation cells (SPY/sector), market cap / dividend yield / borrow rate row, and risk-free rate footer — drops the duplicated stock price
  • Improved Volatility Smile modal: cleaner pill-rail expiry selector, amber put / cyan call palette, ATM and 25Δ annotations
  • Improved IV Term Structure modal: 5-cell header strip, factual synthesis line, contango/backwardation/flat shape descriptor, tenor table with inline IV bars and color-graded earnings effect cells
  • Improved HV Analysis modal: cleaner metric cells, polished window toggle pills, semantic color palette across windows (warm short → cool long), removed redundant Term Structure sub-tab
  • Improved IV vs HV (VRP) modal: paired bar chart with custom delta pills showing per-tenor VRP at a glance
  • Improved IV Rank History modal: zone-background chart with time-in-zone breakdown bar and 1Y average line
  • Improved VRP History modal: IV/HV/VRP overlay with curve regime detection (Persistently Rich, Mean-Reverting, etc.) and 1Y mean line
  • Improved Smile History modal: semantic color palette, time-in-shape breakdown (Heavy Put, Normal, Flat, Call Skew), 1Y average / steepest / flattest cards
  • Improved Historical Volatility tile preview now shows the 20-day HV time series with a faint 252-day baseline, matching the modal's primary view

Bug fixes

  • Fixed Stock price now matches in the header bar and the Daily & Historical Returns tile — previously they could diverge by $0.30–$0.70 during volatile sessions because they fetched from different live endpoints
  • Fixed Term Structure and IV vs HV (VRP) tiles now render their charts correctly — were previously empty due to a chart-layout timing bug that broke the annotation plugin
  • Fixed Cold-cache options chain fetches no longer deadlock — fixed a concurrency bug where the dedup mechanism could leave worker threads hanging on the first request for a ticker
  • Fixed After-hours cache TTL is now properly clamped to the next market open

Cleanup

  • Removed Daily & Historical Returns tile no longer duplicates the absolute price (already shown in the header bar) — the daily move is now the headline
  • Removed "Click to load IV ratio history" and "Click to load correlation history" buttons removed from the Relative Value and Market Context tiles
  • Removed Standalone Fair Value & Straddle Analytics tile retired — its data lives in the embedded Strike-Level Analytics deep dive

Price Chart Upgrades

  • Added Institutional-grade indicator library with 30 indicators across 6 categories — Moving Averages (SMA, EMA, DEMA, Hull MA, WMA), Bands & Channels (Bollinger, Keltner, Donchian, Envelope), Momentum (RSI, MACD, Stochastic, CCI, Williams %R, ROC, MFI), Volatility (ATR, Std Dev, BB Width), Volume (VWAP, OBV, A/D Line, CMF), and Trend (Ichimoku, Parabolic SAR, ADX, SuperTrend)
  • Added Momentum and oscillator indicators render on a dedicated sub-chart axis so they do not distort the price scale
  • Added Earnings markers — blue E boxes at the bottom of the chart with hoverable tooltips showing the earnings date and post-earnings move percentage
  • Improved Indicators now compute on the full 1000-day price history and render from the first visible candle — SMA 200, EMA 21, and other period-based indicators no longer need a warmup gap inside your selected lookback
  • Improved Price chart metrics strip replaced with trader-relevant stats: 52W High, 52W Low, % From High, From Low, vs 50 SMA, and vs 200 SMA
  • Improved 52W High and 52W Low now calculated from a proper 252-day rolling window rather than the visible chart range
  • Improved Candlestick hover tooltip now shows a clean date format without the 12:00 a.m. timestamp
  • Improved Price Chart tab renamed and simplified from "Historical Price Chart (126-Day Lookback) - Scroll to zoom, drag to pan" to just "Price Chart"
