On which platform ?

NinjaTrader does not support options, so this is something which is only possible using custom programming (using IB API for example, reading P/C ratio of a specific underlying).

MultiCharts supports options, so I think it's easy to plot this.

W/ SierraChart you can create your own option chains using their built-in worksheets, look at in the money/out of the money ratios, etc.

If your datafeed supports pcr you can plot it w/ regular charting in addition to charting individual option contracts. You could even create a custom tick index for option chains or any other symbols.

Thanks Sam and Sgt. I use Ninja so I guess I cannot compile this indicator. I am going to check into Sierra based on your recommendation. Thanks a lot for you alls help.

Cheers, Great bunch of members in this forum.
