Speed without ignoring context
A day-trading scanner should surface momentum quickly, but it should still show whether the contract is liquid, over-expensive, near earnings, or tied to fresh headlines.
Options Scanner for Day Traders
An options scanner built for fast day-trader review.
Day traders need a fast way to find contracts where pressure, premium, direction, volatility cost, and news context line up. ConvexRadar is designed to turn a noisy options market into a smaller review list.
Volatility limitation: The scanner’s legacy “IV Rank” label is a normalized, clipped current-IV value, not a historical rank or percentile.
Bias needs to be clear
ConvexRadar highlights call-led and put-led pressure so traders can avoid treating mixed signals as top candidates. Mixed pressure can still be useful, but it belongs lower in the review stack.
Charts still matter
The scanner is a discovery layer. The actual trading decision still needs chart structure, risk level, spread quality, and position sizing.
Frequently asked questions
Can day traders use ConvexRadar during market hours?
Yes. ConvexRadar is built for active market review with scanner refreshes, cached snapshots, chart workflow, and saved-contract follow-up.
Does ConvexRadar pick trades automatically?
No. It ranks research candidates. Users still need to validate chart structure, liquidity, risk, and timing.
What does the scanner’s volatility reading show?
The scanner’s volatility field provides current-IV context alongside premium and other contract fields. Its legacy “IV Rank” label is not a historical rank and does not show whether premium is cheap or expensive relative to the past year.
