Your AI reads last night's pool, checks fresh liquidity and the earnings date for each candidate, and sets the target and the stop from the exit lab: how often past pool contracts hit each level.
You get 1 to 3 candidates, each with entry, target, stop, maximum loss, and a size that fits your risk. Or a reasoned no-trade. You place the order in your own brokerage.

GOOGL BULL $355C Nov 20 '26. The institutional options flow reveals a massive premium concentration targeting the $355 strike expiring in late 2026, catching a localized -2.1% dip in the underlying spot to $334.76 as a buying opportunity before late-October earnings. This long-dated call structure suggests long-term confidence in Google's AI infrastructure and cloud growth despite near-term technical consolidation. Risk factor: Heightened regulatory scrutiny and potential antitrust actions remain key structural overhangs that could disrupt intermediate recovery trajectories.
SMCI BULL $40C Nov 20 '26. Institutional demand aggressively focused on the $40 strike call options expiring in November 2026, positioning for continued medium-term momentum following the company's preliminary net sales guidance raise to $18.5B–$19.5B which shattered previous estimates. Risk factor: Notable variance in analyst reactions, including lingering sell ratings, paired with ongoing executive insider selling, represents a high-volatility overhang that could prompt near-term consolidation.
SHOP BULL $200C Nov 20 '26. The institutional flow shows significant accumulation of long-dated upside exposure as the underlying consolidates near its 52-week highs ahead of its November 3 earnings release. The large premium concentration suggests institutional confidence in Shopify's AI integrations and long-term internet infrastructure expansion. Risk factor: Elevated valuation metrics and the potential for near-term volatility if the upcoming quarterly results fail to exceed high buy-side expectations.
PLTR BULL $210C Nov 20 '26. Institutional order flow shows massive high-conviction positioning targeting the $210 strike with over $103.8M in premium ahead of the company's November 2nd earnings catalyst. This bullish aggression is supported by accelerating commercial AI adoption and a newly announced federal cloud partnership with Knox Systems, which has successfully arrested a temporary software sector drawdown. Risk factor: Heightened volatility and potential regulatory scrutiny surrounding eligibility in specialized global index mandates could inject unexpected macro-driven headwind.
OKTA BULL $240C Nov 20 '26. The institutional flow shows aggressive positioning in deep out-of-the-money long-dated calls, concentrating significant premium into the $240 strike as Wall Street heavily revises its price targets upward following key product launches at the Oktane conference. This positioning indicates that sophisticated players are anticipating long-term structural demand expansion driven by identity-security solutions for enterprise AI agents. Risk factor: The key uncertainty resides in the broader enterprise software sector's valuation volatility and the execution timeline of the newly announced agentic security products.
The engine runs this rule every trading night, at 23:00 ET.
Liquidity decides membership. The engine ranks the most liquid names, keeps the bullish ones, and chooses one call in each on contract liquidity: deep open interest and real session volume. Your AI plans trades it can enter and exit near the quote. If we ranked the most liquid contracts instead, you would get SPY and QQQ every day.
Each contract arrives with its flow data, technicals, catalyst, and news context, all point-in-time. Earnings dates are not screened out of the pool, so your AI checks each candidate's earnings date before it plans a trade.
