  • Computing system that generates graphical displays of stock options trading data
    Patent number: 10803522
    Abstract: A system that produces a predictive chart for a selected stock that is useful in determining if the price of a particular stock is likely to increase or decrease. Open interest data is obtained for the selected stock from an options exchange. Likewise, the option volume data for stock options in the selected stock is also obtained. A computing device calculates implied volatility for the stock options of the selected stock. Options volatility indicator data is then calculated as a function of the open interest data, the volume data, and the implied volatility. The options volatility indicator data is normalized. The normalized data is plotted against selected trading periods to produce an options volatility indicator graph. The options volatility indicator graph is then shown on a display that is controlled by the computing device.
