Options Vol/Open Interest For ThinkOrSwim

I cannot get this to plot now during market hours as well. For the date I have 200306 AMZN is my ticker put strike is 1880 call strike is 1870. Is there a particular time the chart must be set to or something i'm missing?
 
Hello all,
I am new to this forum, wondering if we already have a script that can show the difference of open interest for each strike price, something like using the current OI minus yesterday's EOD, so we can add this indicator to the layout of the options chain.
Thank you.

I think open_interest() - open_interest()[1] will do the trick

Hi, Is there a way in Thinkorswim to find "Open interest change" from previous day that I can display and use in option scanner? If there is a script, can you please share it or help me get started? Thanks in advance.
 
The ToS Options Hacker Module doesn't allow the using of custom scripts to scan against options related data.
Your scan requests can't be scripted into the scanner.
 
Can someone give me an idea on how to code a watchlist script that shows the current options I'm looking at, where they closed at the day prior?
(like on Etrade).
Thanks
 
@ezrollin Each option strike has its own dedicated ticker. You can just use that or add it to your watchlist.
 
Sorry, I'm trying to see where the option closed at previous day for all strikes, all puts, all calls at the same time as a field on the option chain
As a column

I'm new to thinkscript coding, but I think the ITM and OTM bubbles are reversed.

I figured this out when I was changing the wording in the bubbles to read "ATM, OTM or ITM." Yes, it is obvious when you look at the chart but in doing so, the label change showed up on the wrong location. In other words, "OTM CALL" showed up below the current price, and vice versa.

I also found that the option prices and OI don't align with the actual options chains themselves. I couldn't match the Put, Call or OI values on any option chain screens. I even tried using thinkBack.
 
Hi all, Does any one know in thinkscript "Option Time & Sales", how to call this highest traded option's DOE, Class etc? (and also the second biggest option, etc) Any such example scripts available anywhere? Thanks!
