For Options (available at advanced level only)
A. Click 'premiums' to show the ~12-month call premiums for the selected stocks for ATM strike (strike closest to stock price).
ATM Premiums are shown as percent of stock price, that buyer pays seller to have the rights to buy stock at current price till expiration date.
B. Click 'Activity' to show how actively options are traded for the stocks.
Activity is measured as difference between bid and ask, and shown as percent of option price. Smaller values indicates more actively traded options.
Note responses for options will be a bit slower than stocks as data is obtained in real-time. It may be unreliable at times or for specific stocks.
