The contract, or the thing it settles on

For commodities the chart is the future. For the indices you can switch between the future and the cash index, which matters more than it sounds: on a wide-basis day the two are not interchangeable, and the options settle on the index.

The header carries the future and its change, the index and the official close, the basis between them, the at-the-money strike, the straddle, the expiry and the days remaining - so the context of the chart is on the same line as the chart.

Nine charts, one screen

The multi-chart grid holds up to nine slots, each pinned to its own instrument and each set to price, IV-by-strike or IV-by-delta independently. The layout is saved, so the screen you build is the screen you come back to.

There is also a floating chart window that stays above the option chain, for when you want price beside the book rather than instead of it.

  • Volume histogram under the candles
  • Straddle overlay on any price chart
  • All times in IST, aligned to the trading session

Honest about history

Candles are recorded live from the feed, from 13 August 2026 onward. There is no backfill source, so the history is exactly as deep as the recorder has been running, and the chart says so rather than showing an empty frame.

Questions

Which timeframes are available?
One minute, five minutes, fifteen minutes, thirty minutes, one hour and one day, on every fed instrument.
Can I chart the cash index instead of the future?
Yes, for the index chains. You can switch between the future and the cash index, and the header shows the basis between them.
Can I see several instruments at once?
Yes - the multi-chart grid takes up to nine charts, each on its own instrument and its own mode, with the layout saved to your account.
How much history is there?
From 13 August 2026, when the candle recorder went live. It grows every session; there is no earlier data to backfill from.
