Market data for AI assistants

Ask your assistant what the options market is showing.

Connect OptionWhales to ChatGPT, Claude, Codex or another MCP client. Your assistant can retrieve options flow, gamma exposure, volatility, earnings and market context from one source.

Market-data research software. OptionWhales does not execute trades; examples are informational, not investment recommendations.

Free previews available · OAuth or API-key access

Try a real research question

The assistant chooses the relevant OptionWhales tools.

“What are the key SPY gamma levels today?”
“Show unusual NVDA options trades and explain the directional pressure.”
“How does QQQ implied volatility change across expirations?”
“Which earnings and macro events are scheduled this week?”
“Which tickers are having their selling absorbed today?”

What comes back

Market-data responses grounded in the same data as the dashboard

Use conversational prompts for a quick read, then open the dashboard or call the API when you want to inspect the underlying rows and charts.

Example MCP answer

“What are SPY's gamma levels?”

Gamma flip

772.57

Max pain

771.00

OptionWhales' structural GEX snapshot for SPY, computed at 11:31:46 UTC on October 22, 2026, placed the call wall at 770 and the put wall at 765. The front expiration was October 22, 2026.

A separate spot snapshot at 18:27 UTC showed SPY at 762.59. Because the structure and spot observations came from different times, this example does not infer pinning or proximity from their difference.
