SabrTrader
Install on SabrTrader
quantedOptions Profile on your SabrTrader charts. About ten minutes.
Before you start
SabrTrader on Windows, with a futures data connection (for example Interactive Brokers). Two files: QuantedOptions.SabrTrader.dll and QuantedOptions.Core.dll.
SabrTrader's built-in quantedOptions (Gamma Levels) source is a different product: it needs a quantedTrader API key. This add-on uses your platform key.
One of the platforms you choose with your plan.
Install
Sign in at your Orderflow Plugin page and download
quantedoptions_profile_sabrtrader.zip. The page lists the platforms on your plan and shows your API key.Unzip it.
Inside:
QuantedOptions.SabrTrader.dll,QuantedOptions.Core.dlland a licence file. Both DLLs are installed.Close SabrTrader.
Copy both DLLs into
Documents\SabrTrader\Plugins.Loose in
Plugins, next to each other. Never copy SabrTrader's ownSabrTrader.*.dllfiles anywhere.Start SabrTrader and open a chart for ES, MES, NQ, MNQ, RTY, M2K, YM, MYM, GC, MGC, ZB, UB, CL, MCL, SI, SIL, BTC, MBT, ETH or MET.

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 SabrTrader, replace both DLLs in Documents\SabrTrader\Plugins, start SabrTrader again.
If it doesn't work
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| quantedOptions Profile is not in the list | Both DLLs must sit in Documents\SabrTrader\Plugins, and SabrTrader must be restarted after copying them. |
| It draws, but at odd prices | Your data connection is delayed (for example Interactive Brokers without a real-time CME subscription). Alignment follows your chart's price, so a delayed chart shifts the strikes by the last minutes of movement. Use a real-time connection. |
| “wrong key type” or no levels in Gamma Levels | That is SabrTrader's built-in source, which takes a quantedTrader API key. Use quantedOptions Profile with your platform key. |
| The panel or label reports HTTP 401 or 403 | Check the key: no spaces at either end. Lost it? Regenerate it on your plugin page and paste the new one. A 403 also happens with an out-of-date plugin file — download the current one.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. |
