Alpha index is the option’s attractiveness general index based on Sigma and Theta indexes. It takes into account conditional «high cost» or «cheapness» of options, as well as the market condition and the movement potential (flats, triangles and strong trends).

Alpha index values of 1.0 and lower indicate the «cheapness» of options and attractiveness of their purchases and the opposite index values, ranging from 1.5 and higher indicate their high cost and the ability to sell straddles.

Sigma index lets you just in minutes find promising assets in a huge stocks list. It shows the market movement potential relative to past prices taking into account current market realities. That lets identify assets with low volatility (flats and triangles) and high volatility (trends).

The index values below 0.8 indicate the existence of an extremely narrow flat and the opposite values, from 1.5 and more, indicate the trend existence.

Theta index allows you to divide options into «cheap» and «expensive» taking into account the option price and recent market volatility.

«Cheap» options can be considered those with a Theta index 1.0 and lower, and «expensive» ones with Theta index from 1.5 and higher.
