Arbitrage and packages, pulled out

Deep-in-the-money arbitrage, index box spreads and the legs of multi-leg packages look like giant bets on a raw feed. They are identified before anything is ranked.

Measured against similar contracts

$500K is routine in Apple and extraordinary in a small-cap. Every large order is ranked against the closest group of similar contracts with enough history, so size alone does not flag it.

Inferences labelled as inferences

Which side a trade hit and whether it opened a position are estimates, so each carries a confidence. Opening trades are checked against open interest the next morning.

Filing dates, not just trade dates

An official can disclose a trade up to 45 days after making it. Trade date, filing date, the lag between them and the original document are on every row.

Not all money moves the same way.

Whale money

The biggest single bets of the session, from seven-figure option trades to sweeps across every exchange.

Options flow

Smart money

Size that is out of place for contracts like it, paid for aggressively and likely to be opening a new position.

Unusual options activity

Big money

Large orders being worked, on the exchanges and off them. See whether offers are being lifted or bids hit, and where blocks cross.

Order flow Dark pool

Informed money

Executives, directors and 10% owners buying and selling their own company's stock.

Insider trades

Disclosed money

Members of Congress and senior officials, reporting their trades as the law requires.

Politician trades

Everywhere the money shows up.

Every options trade as it hits the tape, with the premium, the size against open interest, and whether the buyer paid up or the seller hit the bid. One click cuts it down to whales, sweeps or institutional size.

A few good
questions.

Talk to us
What counts as smart money here?

Large, aggressive or well-placed trades that leave a public record: big options prints, trades that are abnormal for contracts like them, institutional blocks on and off the exchanges, and the disclosed trades of corporate insiders and public officials.

Will following these trades make me money?

Not on its own. A big trade can be a hedge or one side of a larger position, and filings arrive after the trade. Our own studies find that flow says more about how far a stock may move than which way, and we publish what we measure. Use it to decide where to look, then do your own work.

How fast is the data?

On Trader, options flow, unusual activity, order flow and dark pool prints update live through the session. Insider trades appear when the Form 4 is published, usually within two business days of the trade. Politician trades can be disclosed up to 45 days after the trade. Every row shows its dates.

Can I look around before paying?

Yes. Market Pulse, the track record and the free tools are open without an account, and insider trades, politician trades and stock charts are free through the previous trading day. Options flow, unusual activity, order flow and dark pool start with Trader.

Which plan do I need?

Trader includes options flow, unusual activity, order flow, dark pool, insider and politician trades, plus alerts, trade ideas and the research assistant. Developer adds the REST API, the live MCP server and backtesting. You can inspect the public track record before choosing.

Will Optionomics place trades for me?

No. Optionomics is a research and education platform. You evaluate the research, decide what fits your approach, and place any trades through your own broker.

How should I read the win rate?

It is the share of resolved ideas that reached the win rule: a 5% stock or 10% option peak in the idea’s direction within 30 days. It does not represent a subscriber’s returns or include their execution costs. Read the sample size, open ideas, and the methodology alongside the percentage. Losses are part of the record, and future results can differ.
