TDQS

A3.5/5.0

Scored across 34 tools

Disambiguation3/5

Most tools target clear resource slices (contract_chain, stock_quote, earnings_calendar, etc.), but the cluster of current options-flow tools — abnormal_trades_current, directional_current, intent_flow_current, momentum_rankings, oi_movers, market_tide and sector_tide — shares a similar 'today's flow' purpose and requires careful description-reading to choose correctly. The absorption, darkpool, GEX and contract tools are more distinct, but the overlap in flow rankings keeps this from being cleanly unambiguous.

Naming Consistency4/5

All names use snake_case and generally follow a resource-first pattern (stock_quote, contract_chain, darkpool_ranking, earnings_calendar). There are minor deviations in suffix style (_current, _rankings, _movers) and abbreviations (oi, gex, atm), but the convention remains predictable and readable.

Tool Count2/5

At 34 tools the surface is heavy for an agent-facing server, exceeding the 25+ threshold where count becomes a usability concern. Several current-flow ranking tools could likely be consolidated or expressed as parameters, making the set feel sprawling rather than tightly scoped.

Completeness4/5

The server covers a broad options-analytics domain: chains, flow, dark pool, GEX/Greeks, volatility, earnings, news, technicals, fundamentals, macro, short interest and screening. Some gaps remain, such as richer historical unusual-flow access and contract-level live quotes/greeks, but core workflows are well supported.

Available Tools

34 tools
abnormal_trades_currentUnusual options activityA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Unusual options activity this session — large, sweep-like or volume-versus-open-interest outlier orders with ticker, direction, size and time. Use for 'any unusual options activity in NVDA?' or 'latest unusual options trades today'. Returned records from the bounded feed are ordered newest first. Without an account: the latest 3 trades (ticker, direction, type, time); free: the latest 5 with core fields; Pro: the full feed.

Inputs: limit. Returns: _meta, count, trades, preview, +3 more

absorption_marketAbsorption cross-sectionA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

WHICH tickers are having their order flow ABSORBED right now - large flow moving price less than the continuous-tape Kyle-lambda model explains - for a date (default latest): one row per ticker with the absorption strength percentile, the side, the pre-event context and whether it is tradeable (DROP context + Q3/Q4), plus whole-market breadth. row_semantics says whether each row is the day's PEAK event (settled session) or the LATEST one (live). This is an EVENT FEED, not a validated signal: the regime gate is long-only (SPY 63-day return > 0) and fails in bear tapes, auction windows are excluded as mechanical artifacts, and provisional=true means the event was detected live without calibration. Check coverage.completeness before concluding the tape is quiet - a degraded feed looks identical to a calm one. Use for 'who is absorbing selling today?'. Pro.

Inputs: date, limit, min_pctile, include_events, +1 more.

absorption_tickerAbsorption for one tickerA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

One ticker's absorption events for a date (default latest) PLUS its trailing per-day direction history, so you can tell whether today is unusual for the name. Each event carries the absorption strength percentile, the side, the pre-event context quartile and provisional=true when it was detected live without calibration. Forward returns in the history are RAW LONG P&L and are deliberately NOT signed by the absorption side, so a negative number on a sell-absorption day is not a losing signal. Use for 'is NVDA being absorbed, and is that unusual?'. Pro.

Inputs: ticker (required), date, days, limit.

contract_atmAt-the-money option strikesA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Near-the-money option strikes grouped by expiry, within a band around spot (default plus or minus 5%). Use to find the liquid at-the-money contracts for a ticker. Pro.

Inspect

Option chain for a ticker from the latest open-interest snapshot: each contract's OCC symbol, strike, expiry, type and open interest (OI > 0). Filter by expiry, call/put or minimum OI. Pro.

Inputs: ticker (required), date, type, limit, +2 more.

contract_historicOption contract price historyB
Read-onlyIdempotent

darkpool_rankingDark pool rankingA
Read-onlyIdempotent

Inputs: date.

darkpool_time_profileDark pool time profileA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

WHEN one ticker's off-exchange (dark pool) volume traded, by price, for a date (default latest): a 5-minute × price grid of shares, the point of control and value area, and the largest block prints at their report time (outside_nbbo flags prints reported beyond the quote, away_from_quote those priced away from it: >0.1% and 2 cents outside). cells_side gives each cell's [buy, sell, away] shares (buy = at the ask + 60% near it, sell = at the bid + 60% near it, away left out, rest neutral); totals add buy_volume, sell_volume, away_volume. Side is an NBBO-location proxy, not buy/sell; ~15 min delayed. Use for 'when did the dark pool trade NVDA around 180?'. Pro.

Inputs: ticker (required), date.

directional_currentDirectional score by tickerA

Inputs: days, limit, ticker.

gex_levelsGamma exposure (GEX) levelsA
Read-onlyIdempotent
Inspect

Modeled dealer gamma-exposure key levels for a ticker: gamma flip, max pain, call wall, put wall and spot. When timestamps are present, calculated levels belong to the options snapshot at computed_at; spot may be updated independently at spot_resolved_at. Compare each level numerically with the returned spot: do not assume the put wall is below it or the call wall above it. Explain differing timestamps or freshness limitations before treating snapshot levels as current intraday support or resistance. Max pain is struck per expiration and max_pain_expiry names the (front) expiry it belongs to — max_pain_basis / wall_basis say which definition each field carries. Use when asked where price may pin, bounce, stall or accelerate, e.g. 'what are the gamma levels on SPY?'. session defaults to the latest trading day. Without an account and on free: SPY and QQQ; Pro: any ticker.

Inputs: ticker (required), session, dte_filter. Returns: spot, ticker, session, max_pain, +24 more
