ATAS X

Install on ATAS X

quantedOptions Profile on your ATAS X charts. About ten minutes.

Before you start

ATAS X (the current ATAS) on Windows or macOS, on an Ultra licence — the profile does not load on PLUS or PRO. The same file works on both operating systems. ATAS Classic is not covered here, and neither is ATAS Web: the profile is a .dll the desktop app loads, so the browser build cannot run it.

Not on Ultra? ATAS licences — code MARXBKQ8RM takes 5% off Ultra, monthly through lifetime, until 6 September 2026. Partner link: we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you.

Install

Sign in at your Orderflow Plugin page and download quantedoptions_profile_atas.zip. The page lists the platforms on your plan and shows your API key.
Unzip it.
Inside: QuantedOptions.Atas.dll and a licence file. Only the DLL is installed.
Close ATAS X.
Open the Indicators folder: Windows %APPDATA%\ATAS X\Indicators, macOS ~/Library/Application Support/ATAS/Indicators.
Windows: paste the path into File Explorer's address bar. macOS: Finder → Go → Go to Folder, paste the path.
Copy QuantedOptions.Atas.dll into that folder. It is a single file; nothing else is needed.
Start ATAS X and open a chart for ES, MES, NQ, MNQ, RTY, M2K, YM, MYM, GC or MGC.
Open the chart's Indicators list, search for quanted, add quantedOptions Profile.
In the indicator settings, group 1. Connection, fill in the settings below and apply. Bar look, panel and change windows are in groups 2 to 6.

Connection settings

Same on every platform; only the labels differ a little.

Setting	Enter
`API base URL`	`https://www.quantedoptions.com/api`
`API key (qo_live_…)`	your `qo_live_…` key
`Options underlying`	`AUTO — from the chart symbol`
`Price conversion`	`AUTO — from the chart symbol`
`Book`	`Today's / nearest expiry (0DTE; the panel says which)`

The ladder and panel appear within a few seconds. The key is remembered on this machine.

Every other setting is one line each on Settings explained.

How to tell it works

A ladder of bars on the right of the chart, one per strike, and a small panel in the bottom-left corner. The panel's first line names the chart and the source — ES · from SPX 0DTE 08-19 — then the prices: SPX 6480.25 → ES 6512.00.

The dot in the panel header: green = fresh, amber = a few minutes old, red = stale. Outside market hours the last data is held and the dot stays green.

Update to a new version

Close ATAS X, replace the DLL in the same folder, start ATAS X again.

If it doesn't work

What you see	What to do
quantedOptions Profile is not in the list	The DLL is in the wrong folder, or ATAS X was running when you copied it. Check the path and restart ATAS X.
It draws, but at odd prices	Your data connection is delayed (for example the built-in 15-minute delayed feed). Alignment follows your chart's last price, so a delayed chart shifts the strikes by the last minutes of movement. Use a real-time connection.
Where the log is	`%APPDATA%\ATAS X\Logs\app_<date>.log` — lines start with `qO Profile`.
The panel or label reports HTTP 401 or 403	Check the key: copy it again from your plugin page, no spaces at either end. A 403 also happens with an out-of-date plugin file — download the current one.
Nothing draws and there is no error	Check the URL. It must be exactly `https://www.quantedoptions.com/api`. Without `www` the request is redirected and the plugin does not follow redirects.
Bars draw at the wrong prices	The chart has no live last price yet (a fresh chart with no ticks, or a symbol the plugin does not recognise). Wait for a tick, or set the underlying by hand.
The panel says rate limited	You have more charts open than the key allows across all machines. Close a few, or wait a minute.

Still stuck: send a screenshot and the log lines starting qO Profile.
