Components: Components help you compare a single stock to all of the stocks in the same SPDR sector ETF. ORATS has over 30 unique symbols that are appended by _C. These have data points just like any other symbol, except they are calculated using the weighted average of the ETFs components. For example, XLK is the SPDR technology sector ETF. We look at all of its components and calculate a weighted average for each indicator. The results are placed into a new symbol called XLK_C. Components can be used as ratios when building custom indicators.

FAQ
Stock Scanner, answered.
What can I screen on?
Over 700 proprietary option indicators plus 22 fundamental ones, across more than 5,000 stocks and ETFs. That spans the ordinary fields (earnings dates, stock volume, market cap, PE ratio) and the ones only an options shop computes: implied volatility rank and percentile, contango, slope, skew, forecast volatility, and historical earnings moves.
What are Components and the _C symbols?
A Component symbol is the weighted average of an ETF’s holdings, published as its own ticker with the same indicators as any other. XLK_C, for example, is the weighted average of every stock inside the technology sector ETF. There are 30+ of them, and they let you ask how one stock is priced relative to its sector rather than in isolation.
Can I build my own indicators?
Yes. Any two indicators can be divided into a custom ratio, and a ratio can be taken against a Component symbol, so a screen like “30-day IV relative to its sector’s 30-day IV” is a single column. Ratios sort and filter exactly like the built-in fields.
Are there scans I can just run?
Several are built in and ready to go: Hard-To-Borrow, Low IV30d, High IV30d, Earnings This Week, Put-Call Skew Rich, Put-Call Skew Cheap, Unusual Put Volume, and Unusual Call Volume. We keep adding to the list, and you can save your own screens alongside them.
Does it connect to the Option Scanner?
That is the point of running it. Scan for the stocks that interest you, then push that ticker list straight into the Option Scanner and hunt for trades on exactly those names, without retyping anything.
What does the Stock Scanner cost?
It is included in ORATS Trading Tools at $99 per month for an individual license ($199 per user per month for a professional license), alongside every other tool on the platform, from the backtesters and scanners to Otto, real-time data, and broker connections. Cancel within 24 hours of signup for an automatic full refund.
