quantedOptions Levels on your TradingView charts. A couple of minutes.

How it works on TradingView: the walk-through film →

Before you start

TradingView web only. The TradingView desktop app runs no browser extensions, so nothing can draw there automatically — on desktop, copy the levels from the panel and paste them into the indicator by hand.

Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi and Arc all take the same download. Firefox has its own build — the plugin page links it separately. Load the wrong one in Firefox and nothing happens at all: Firefox runs an event page where the others run a service worker, so the add-on never starts.

Included with every plan that carries the add-ons, and with quantedClassic.

Install

  1. Sign in at your Orderflow Plugin page and download quantedoptions_levels_tradingview.zip. The page lists the platforms on your plan and shows your API key.

  2. Unzip it.

    You get a folder. Keep it somewhere permanent — the browser loads it from where it sits, so deleting the folder removes the add-on.

  3. Open chrome://extensions and turn on Developer mode (top right).

    Edge is edge://extensions, Brave brave://extensions. In Firefox it is about:debugging › This Firefox › Load Temporary Add-on, and you pick the manifest.json inside the folder rather than the folder itself.

  4. Click Load unpacked and choose the unzipped folder.

    Choose the folder itself — not a file inside it. The file picker shows the contents, which is confusing: highlight the folder, or step into it and press Select.

  5. Click the qO icon in the toolbar and paste your API key, then Save.

    It checks the key straight away and tells you if it worked.

  6. In the same popup, add the indicator: Open the indicator (then add it from your chart's Indicators › Favourites), or Copy Pine source and paste it into TradingView's Pine Editor.

    The indicator is what draws. Without it the add-on has nowhere to put the levels.

  7. Open a chart and press Push to chart on the panel.

    Call and put walls, the gamma flip, the ranked nodes and the strike ladder appear at the right prices.

Connection settings

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

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

Download the new zip, unzip it over the old folder, then press the reload arrow on the add-on's card at chrome://extensionsand reload your TradingView tab. A tab opened before the reload keeps running the old copy; the panel will tell you when that has happened.

If it doesn't work

What you seeWhat to do
The panel says “No gamma book for this symbol”That symbol is not one of the books the feed serves. Futures resolve to the book that prices them (ES to SPX, NQ to QQQ, and so on); stocks resolve to their own book.
Push says the settings dialog did not openThe indicator is not on that chart. Add quantedOptions Levels first, then push.
The chart draws a different ticker's levelsThe indicator is still holding an older paste. Press Push to chart — the indicator warns on-chart when the pasted ticker and the chart disagree.
Several charts on screenThe push goes to the chart you last clicked. Click another chart and push again for that one.
Levels vanish after reopening the layoutTradingView restores the last saved layout, so a pushed value is replaced by whatever was saved. Push once after opening.
The panel or label reports HTTP 401 or 403Check 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 errorCheck 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 pricesThe 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 limitedYou have more charts open than the key allows across all machines. Close a few, or wait a minute.
