This is Richard, the creator of the Ainvest Option Flow daily newsletter. Thank you so much for following and subscribed Ainvest Option Daily Newsletter! I persoanlly truely appreciate your support and acknowledgement!

Trading and understanding option market is very tough, as a investor and trader there are so much information and pain we have to navigate to 'make it'. The creation of the newsletter was based on the idea to make option flow, especially the unusual trades clearly stands out with it's intent. Compare to the raw tape, we try our best to stand out at the following point:

Legs matching and strategy detection: we build tools to detect and match all the legs of the same trader / investor and understand what those option legs stands for in terms of the option strategies ( bull call spread, bear put spreads , calendar spreads etc)

Detect buy or sell order ( aggressor side): our product find if the order is buy or sell by leveraging data from open interests, bid and ask price at the time of the trade and historical similar size trades of the contract.

We were doing the laborsome just try to make it easy for you around the end of the market close you digest and make some decision given your personal interests and judgement.

Since we begin from Aug, 2025, we've had 1000+ subscribers that witness the option market flow together!
