How to Use It
1. Add this indicator to your chart (daily timeframe only)
2. Note the 3 different types of options that are listed ("Puts Sold", "Calls Bought", and "Puts Bought")

Puts Sold
- These trades typically indicate sharp money interest at a particular level. For example, if puts are sold on NVDA at $100 and the current price is $120, you can be fairly certain that there will be material buying activity at $100, should the stock get there
- For this reason, this indicator draws "levels" using Put Sale strikes
- To get the most out of this indicator, you would look at the Put Sale levels and see if there is confluence with other signals you have

Calls/Puts Bought
- These trades represent directional bets by sharp players
- Because timing is important with options due to theta decay, these notable trades can signal a potential turning point in a stock
- To get the most out of these, look for out of the ordinary call/put volume on a stock
- Option trades are printed on the candle of the day they were opened
- By hovering over a trade "Calls Bought" or "Puts Bought", a tooltip will appear listing all the details of those trade(s)
