Ok I know this might be a tough ask in TOS but is it possible to build something that can do anything similar to this that updates gamma volume by strikes?

@Ajordan930 While we do have code here in the forums that can do Gamma Heat Map color changes on standard Option Chain listings, we cannot setup a grid within the platform similar to your image... And he calculations for the Gamma Heatmap slow overall performance and lags in refreshing, at least from my experience... For this reason I am slowly working on my own external GEX spreadsheet using the Schwab API... I know I'm not alone when I say that this GEX data is just as important more even more so than several of the other analysis functionality already in the platform...

Ok I went through and built out something with chatgpt guiding the way. This will update every 15 seconds and once market opens I should see a flow line. We will see tomorrow

this looks interesting. but i have no idea what i'm looking at.
can you elaborate on how data is gathered to display in the picture? is there a programming language using api calls? is it html? python?
 
@Ajordan930 Nice...!!! I'm intrigued and would be willing to give it a review on SPY if you'd like...
Absolutelty, always looking for input and ways to improve. I know there are services out there that can provide this but figured I would give it the old college try

I am looking at building a dashboard to show call and put total premium on 0 DTE SPX. This currently has the what I am calling K levels that show the top 3 strikes related to total premiums. Also I am identifying the top gamma strikes as well. All of this could blow up and not work when the market opens but the top right is designed to show call/put flow along with price. I have it set up to update every 15 seconds currently and if a spike of 5,000,000 is hit if should plot a bullish alert or bearish

Tools used
1. Python
2. Visual Studio
3. Tradier open API
