Daily Watchlist of Stocks to Day Trade Weekly Options For ThinkOrSwim

Hi San,

So we come up with the watchlist every day using the blastoff indicator https://usethinkscript.com/threads/blast-off-indicator-for-thinkorswim.621/ on our tech watchlist.
Here's the latest code for it.

You can set up a scanner with that and set the condition to be if the blastoff indicator is True. Then set it up running from a watchlist of your choosing and it'll print out a list of the expected movers for the next day. From that watchlist, I like to look at the flow for the day and see if there is any unusual flow or expected momentum that we could see for the next day. I'll take out anything that doesn't have much option flow or doesn't look interesting to watch for the next day. Then I'll post the results.

Thanks for your response and spending your valuable time on this query.

I am trying incorporate your feedback with my screen but i could not :) I knew I am not doing correctly. Please advice.

1. Created watch list using blast indicator and set the watch list parameter like below. But its not showing me blast result, I mean there is no indecision candle( Purple)
Plot : hh
input: trig
condition: is true
within 1 bar

BUT verified today watch list for below stock and its shows indecision candle (purple) for below stock.
BA
NVDA
PG
SQ
TGT
TSLA
V

2. I understand that you determine "low for the day and see if there is any unusual flow or expected momentum that we could see for the next day" based on Watch list indecision candle ( Purple) am i correct or you use any other method.

3. How do you determine "much option flow" - You replied " unusual options activity from CBOE " is there any specific site or any watch list or any scanner.

4. I request,please share any Video or document or tutorial which explain Unusual Volume activity and Flow.
