You don't have to switch platforms to trade the gamma structure. Mint one API key and my call wall, put wall, gamma flip and the full gamma-by-strike profile draw on your own NinjaTrader 8 chart — the same levels my terminal draws, recomputed through the session. $39/mo.
The dealer-positioning read lives in a browser dashboard and your execution lives in your platform. So you read a number in one window, alt-tab, and eyeball roughly where it lands on the chart you actually trade. The level never touches the thing you press buttons on.
Your NinjaTrader 8 workspace is years of chart templates, hotkeys and instrument settings. "Just use our terminal instead" is a real cost, and it's the honest reason most traders never try a gamma product at all.
Open interest updates on the exchange's daily cycle, but spot and implied volatility move all session — so the gamma flip genuinely migrates, most visibly on heavy 0DTE days. A level screenshotted at 8am is not the level at 2pm.
A study you install once. The levels render as real chart objects on your NinjaTrader 8 chart, at your instrument's own prices, next to whatever else you already run.
Call wall, put wall, gamma flip, max pain, the expected-move band, the top gamma strikes, and the full gamma-by-strike profile — the same objects the terminal draws.
The key is included with a paid plan — no separate purchase — and the same one works across every supported platform, so running two charting setups costs you nothing extra.
| The job | A standalone gamma dashboard | Sharpnel levels in NinjaTrader 8 |
|---|---|---|
| Where the level lives | In a browser tab, beside the chart you trade | As a chart object on your own NinjaTrader 8 chart |
| What you do with it | Read a number, switch windows, estimate where it sits | Watch price approach the line on the chart you're already reading |
| What it costs you to adopt | A second subscription and a second window | One study install; your workspace is untouched |

About ten minutes, once.
You get NinjaScript source, not a compiled binary — NinjaTrader compiles it on your own machine, so you can read every line of what you are running before you run it.
