With the massive additions of assets and data sources, Terminal Access pricing is now $99/mo or $990/yr. The free trial has been extended from 3 days to 7 days so you have a full week to actually use the panels before any charge. Existing subscribers stay on their original Founding price for life. Your subscription rate will never change, even as we keep expanding coverage and adding new panels.
Added

v2 Update 3
Introducing BackQuant AI
BackQuant AI is now live across the Pro Terminal and a dedicated /ai page. A bring-your-own-key assistant that reads every panel, runs 80+ live data tools, renders charts inline, takes screenshots of your workspace, can search the web for breaking news, and remembers context across sessions and devices. Shipping alongside the AI launch: a keyboard-first command bar (CLI panel and Cmd+K palette), a new 30-day Net GEX percentile metric, a chart-only panel mode that strips any chart down to its canvas, SOL and HYPE joining the aggregate tier with BTC and ETH, equity option symbols (SPY, SPX, NVDA, and friends) routed through the command bar, and the Options Tape going live on the public v2 API.
Added
BackQuant AI in the Pro Terminal: an assistant with read-and-write access to BackQuant data, using your own Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google provider key. Chats stream live, cache prompts, and remember context across sessions. Available as both an in-terminal panel and a dedicated /ai page.
Dedicated /ai page: a full-page AI workspace with shared settings, multi-chat sidebar, and the same tool layer as the in-terminal panel. Use the panel for in-flight desk work, the page for longer research sessions. Type / in the composer to insert pre-built prompts (GEX overview, OPEX read, macro brief, regime check).
AI multi-chat sidebar: rename, delete, focus mode, pop-out window, and per-chat history that sticks across sessions. Chats also sync across browsers and devices, with ownership tracking that prevents accidental overwrites between concurrent sessions.
97 AI tools wired into the assistant across markets, GEX, COT, ETF flows, macro, regime, options chain, screeners, and reports. Each tool response is stamped with the exact UTC timestamp the data came from, so the model can cite how fresh each number is when it answers.
Embed Pro Terminal panels directly in AI chat: ask for the OPEX panel, GEXPCT, COT, the Tape, regime cards, or any of ~90 panel kinds and the assistant renders them inline on /ai, or opens them straight in your workspace on /pro. The fastest path from a question to a fully populated panel.
Inline charts in AI chat: the assistant can render charts (net GEX history, GEX by strike, OI by strike, IV term structure, IV vs RV, max pain) directly in its response when you ask to see a series instead of read numbers.
Payoff diagram generator inside the AI: describe a multi-leg options structure (single leg, vertical, condor, or arbitrary combination) and the assistant builds a payoff curve with auto-fetched spot, breakevens, max gain, and max loss.
Front-expiry brief tool: one prompt pulls the front expiry chain, max pain, GEX wall, and IV term anchor in a single combined view. Ask what is happening at the front expiry and get the whole picture in one response.
Run reports from inside AI chat: ask the assistant to run any of the /reports templates (daily, NY pre-open, Asia setup) and the report executes and renders right in the conversation, no tab switching.
Web search for the AI assistant: provider-native web search (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) for breaking news, Fed statements, ETF approvals, and macro releases that have not yet propagated to the BackQuant calendar. Market microstructure numbers still come from the BackQuant tool layer, never the web.
BackQuant AI footer disclosure: a one-line reminder under the composer that BackQuant AI can make mistakes and is not investment advice. Verify trades against the underlying data.
Vision support in the AI panel: drop a screenshot of any panel into chat and ask the model to read it. A capture button grabs the currently focused panel in one click.
AI reasoning toggle (off, fast, hard) exposing the provider native extended-thinking budget for deeper analysis on harder questions.
Long-term AI memory: the assistant keeps a per-user notebook it can read and write between conversations, so context carries forward across days.
AI Reports tab: pre-built daily and desk-brief generators that combine multiple tools into one structured output.
CLI panel on the Pro Terminal: a draggable workspace panel for keyboard-first commands. Type any verb (SURFACE BTC GAMMA, GEXPCT, STRESS ETH), get autocomplete, history, and a scrollback log. Auto-uppercase as you type. Enter submits, Tab picks an autocomplete suggestion.
Cmd+K command palette (configurable in Settings): the same command surface as the CLI panel, available as a centered modal that works even while typing in inputs, so you can fire a command without breaking flow.
30-day Net GEX percentile context metric. The new GEXPCT panel shows the headline number, a sparkline, and a plain-English narrative read (for example, "92nd percentile, very positive"). A row in the OPEX panel's Key Levels section places the percentile next to Max Pain, Pin Risk, and Expected Move, and the AI panel cites the percentile when discussing dealer positioning.
Chart-only panel mode: every Pro Terminal panel header now has two new chrome controls. Hide the panel header bar (keeps the in-panel settings strip), or Show chart only (collapses the header and every settings, filter, and mode-toggle strip inside the panel, leaving just the canvas). Works across the ~90 panels that have any settings UI.
SETTLE panel: anchored countdown to the next options settle, with the dealer-side levels (HVL, max pain, call wall, put support) and how far they sit from spot.
GEX alerts in the ALERTS panel: configure alerts on GEX levels with six Web Audio synth presets, browser notification permission, and per-level enable or disable. Mirrors the Settings modal config so edits in either place stay in sync.
Options Tape on the public v2 API: the live multi-venue options trade tape (Deribit, Bybit, OKX, Binance) is now available to external subscribers via REST polling or WebSocket streaming. Five years of retention, rate-limited. View API access →
SOL and HYPE join the aggregate tier alongside BTC and ETH. SOL_PERP_AGG and HYPE_PERP_AGG resolve across the supported venues, so every Kiyotaka-backed panel (PRICE, BSV, CVD, OI, FUND, LIQ, AGRDOM, CARRY) just works without venue switching.
Equity option symbols across the terminal: SPY, SPX, QQQ, IWM, AAPL, NVDA, TSLA, and friends now resolve directly in the command bar, grouped in the SymbolSwitcher as Indices, Mega Cap, Popular ETFs, and Sector Leaders. The equities GEX strike profile can also be filtered to a single expiry token (for example, 17JAN26) instead of always showing the all-expiry roll-up.
AI equities parity: the AI assistant now handles all 29 supported equity tickers (previously hardcoded to SPX, QQQ, SPY, IWM). Ask about AAPL, NVDA, TSLA, or any other supported symbol and the assistant routes correctly.
GEX per-1%-move tooltips: hover any net GEX number in the terminal to see the USD notional dealers must hedge for each 1% spot move at that level. Reframes raw GEX numbers in dollar terms you can act on.
BackQuant AI is now in the main navigation bar and gets a dedicated focus row on the landing page, so new users land on the AI launch instead of having to discover it.
Tooltips across the Pro Terminal: every non-trivial header, mode toggle, and stat now carries a hover-tooltip explaining what it is and how to read it.
Installable app: the terminal can now be installed as a desktop or mobile app from your browser. Works offline once it has loaded once.
Panel toggle state now persists across reloads, so settings you flip on one session come back on the next.
Fixed
AI panel polish: the send button is now obvious, text contrast bumped across the panel, settings toggles give instant visual feedback, and popovers no longer drift off-axis on fractional browser zoom.
Options tape: more resilient streaming reconnects on Bybit and Deribit, snappier writes, and an added options snapshots feed on Binance.
Earnings panel: infinite-refetch loop fixed, BTC suffix bug fixed, and the full S&P 500 and NASDAQ-100 coverage now flows through correctly.
Daily reports: now scheduled pre-US-open, anchored on the real anomalies of the day, tone-checked before posting, and weekend-aware. Better funding rendering, OI percentile included, and a check that stops the same line repeating.
Skew and IV rendering no longer blows up small values 100x.
COT panel no longer crashes when a category (for example, Swap Dealers) has no reported positions for an instrument. Renders a graceful empty state instead.
v2 Update 2
v2 Update 2
CFTC Positioning and Earnings Calendar
Two big additions on top of v2 Update 1: weekly CFTC Commitment of Traders data and eight new positioning panels across ~750 futures markets, plus a full-year Earnings Calendar grid with comprehensive S&P 500 and NASDAQ-100 coverage, an Options Footprint view, macro surprise-history reactions, and signed dealer-side GEX / DEX.
Added
CFTC Commitment of Traders backbone: weekly institutional positioning data across ~750 futures markets with 5 years of history. Covers crypto, equities, rates, FX, and commodities. Refreshes every Friday after 15:30 ET.
COT panel: sortable cross-instrument table colour-coded by 3-year percentile, plus a single-instrument deep dive with category bars, a signed-series chart with p10 / p25 / p50 / p75 / p90 bands, and a smart-vs-fast-money divergence sub-chart. Four view modes in one panel: Heatmap, Detail, Divergence, and Week-over-Week.
CROWD panel: positioning-extremes watchlist pre-filtered to instruments where |z| ≥ 2 (configurable). The mean-reversion candidate screen, sortable by extremity, week-over-week move, or divergence.
COTPRICE panel: candle chart with a COT z-score sub-pane, so you can see whether positioning is leading or following price. BTC and ETH today, more instruments as price feeds wire in.
COTSEAS panel: annual seasonality. 5-year average positioning by week-of-year envelope (p10 to p90) with the current year overlaid. Surfaces NatGas, Wheat, and Sugar cycles cleanly.
COTU panel: full 750-market browser beyond the curated 48 headlines. Search anything CFTC tracks.
COTCONC panel: top-4 and top-8 trader concentration screen, for spotting squeeze-risk setups by trader bunching.
COTSPREAD panel: calendar-spread positioning per category, for curve plays.
COT composite card on the Macro hero: cross-asset COT composite score (risk-on/off tilt) plus the top-3 most extreme positions across the universe, on /market and /macro.
Earnings Calendar (EARNINGS) overhaul: new LIST and GRID toggle. Pick YEAR plus GRID to see all 12 months stacked with day-of-week columns. Each ticker chip colours by surprise once the print lands. A ₿ badge marks crypto-proxy names. Coverage now spans the full S&P 500 and NASDAQ-100 large-cap union (~520 names) plus the crypto-proxy 5.
Options Footprint (FOOTPRINT) panel: one row per strike combining the live tape (call-buy / call-sell / put-buy / put-sell with buy/sell-aggressor split) with the chain (Γ / Δ / ν / OI). Bridges STRIKEMAG, GEX, DEX, and AGGRIMB into a single view.
Surprise History (SURPHIST) panel: for any macro release code (CPI / NFP / FOMC / PCE / GDP), past releases against BTC reaction in 4h and 24h windows. Sparklines per release plus hit-rate and median-move stats.
Signed dealer-side GEX / DEX on the GAMMA dashboard: Call γ / Put γ / Call δ / Put δ as four signed tiles with a plain-English dealer-stance read. The GEX and DEX panels also gain a new SIGNED view mode that respects the actual sign of each side.
Fixed
Free-mode workspace: new floating panels now surface on top instead of being buried, the command bar stays above floating panels, and switching workspaces no longer corrupts saved free-mode positions.
v2 Update 1
v2 Update 1
Order Flow, Dealer Delta, Alerts and Reports
The first big update on top of v2.0: a live options trade tape with whale tracking and order-flow analytics, Dealer Delta Exposure across the terminal, a new Alerts panel with customisable sounds, scheduled Reports with PDF export, the SECTORS panel, 4H charts, Discord role linking, and a batch of fixes.
Added
DEX panel added to the Pro Terminal: dealer Delta Exposure by strike with the same five view modes as GEX (Net / Split / Call / Put / Abs), strike-range ±% input, OI minimum, expiry multi-select, and a per-venue chip row (Deribit / Bybit / OKX / Binance).
New command: DEX <coin> (plus DELTA / DELTAEX / DELTAEXPOSURE aliases). Opens the panel for any options-tracked symbol.
DEX by Strike row added to the /gex page directly under the GEX strike profile. Same data scope, expressed as dealer delta instead of gamma. Reads as a structural directional bias card alongside the gamma walls.
Net DEX (dealer delta) tile added to the Gamma summary card on /gex, alongside Pin / PCR / OI. Headline number plus a plain-English read: "Long delta, sells into strength" / "Short delta, buys into strength" / "Near-balanced".
Auto-switching aggregated vs detail mode on the DEX panel: aggregated reads the multi-venue feed, and applying any expiry / strike / OI filter automatically switches to Deribit per-contract for the true call/put split. Matches the GEX panel behaviour so the two read as a pair.
TAPE panel added to the Pro Terminal: live options trade tape with every individual print scrolling in real time. Filter by coin, minimum premium, side, option type, and venue, all persisted per panel.
Multi-venue tape: Deribit and Bybit options stream into the same TAPE view. Toggle venues in the header to focus on one exchange or see the combined flow.
WHALES panel added to the Pro Terminal: leaderboard of the biggest options trades since UTC midnight (or 4H / 8H / 24H lookback). Sortable by premium, time, contracts, IV, or strike. Click any row to expand the full trade-detail view.
STRIKEMAG panel added to the Pro Terminal: per-strike net premium flow from the tape. A horizontal diverging bar chart showing where real money is actually trading right now, with calls-bought and puts-sold on the right and calls-sold and puts-bought on the left, ATM band highlighted.
AGGRIMB panel added to the Pro Terminal: premium-weighted buy-aggressor vs sell-aggressor over time. Diverging columns with a cumulative net line, auto-sized buckets from 1m to 15m depending on lookback.
Click any trade row in TAPE or WHALES to expand a full-width detail view: strike vs spot with moneyness, notional exposure, mark spread, days-to-expiry, IV, full timestamps (UTC and local), plus one-click jump to CHAIN / GEX / STUDY for that contract.
Seven inline tags on tape rows: 0DTE (expires today), ATM (within ±2% of spot), WHL (premium at or above your threshold), AGGR (taker paid through mark by 1% or more), PSV (filled within 0.5% of mark), BLK (block trade), LIQ (liquidation). Hover any tag for what it means.
Net Bias Today chip in the TAPE header: cumulative premium-weighted long-vs-short bias across every trade seen since UTC midnight. An aggressiveness summary alongside it shows the PSV / AGGR / BLK percentages of dollar volume in the visible buffer.
Sound alerts on big trades inside TAPE: configurable per-panel threshold, pattern, waveform, frequency, duration, volume, and cooldown. Open the settings icon in the TAPE header to dial it in. Off by default.
Screenshot button on Pro Terminal panels: hover the panel header and click the screenshot icon to copy a clean PNG, complete with a title bar and BackQuant watermark, straight to your clipboard.
New commands: TAPE, WHALES, STRIKEMAG, AGGRIMB (plus aliases like T&S, BIGGEST, AGGRESSOR, STRIKEFLOW). Each accepts an optional coin argument.
Per-workspace panel layout: Grid vs Free is now set per workspace rather than globally. Switching between Grid and Free in Settings only affects the active workspace, so one workspace can stay tiled while another goes free-floating.
4H timeframe charts are now available for all major pairs
ALERTS panel added to the Pro Terminal: create price and level alerts that fire without leaving your workspace
Alert sounds with expanded functionality: every alert can play a notification sound, and the sound is customisable per alert
REPORT panel added to the Pro Terminal: structured market reports generated on a schedule
Export any report to PDF
Reports now run at two key windows: NY pre-open (13:30 UTC, one hour before the US cash open at 8:30 AM ET) and Asia setup (22:00 UTC, one hour after the US cash close, before Tokyo opens at 00:00 UTC)
SECTORS panel added to the Pro Terminal: equal-weighted sector performance with one rebased line per sector over a configurable window (30, 90, 180, or 365 days), so you can see where rotation is happening across the universe at a glance
Toggleable colouring for the SCREEN panel

Publish to Hub from the Pro Terminal Settings menu: pick a title, description, category (options, volatility, GEX, perps, macro, market, modelling, overview, other), upload a screenshot, hit publish. Manage your published layouts from the same panel: view counts, fork counts, unpublish, or delete in one place
Hub link added to the main dashboard navigation bar alongside Custom and Pro
One-click 'Add to Custom Dashboard' button on every chart card across the regular dashboards. Hit the + in any chart header and it lands in your Custom dashboard, no setup, no picker. The terminal auto-creates a 'My Dashboard' the first time you use it
STUDY now available as a Custom Dashboard chart: the multi-pane composite chart from the Pro Terminal can be added to a Custom layout via the same + button workflow

Sign convention matches the rest of the suite (+1 calls, −1 puts) so cross-references are coherent View API access →
Full reference page for the new TRACE endpoint published to docs.backquant.com: units table, sign convention, what-if vol shift, performance specs, caps. Live in the interactive playground
API open interest & flow: OI by expiry, OI history, put/call ratio, and the premium-tide flow signal
