By Faizan Ahmad. Updated 2026-11-01.

Choose MenthorQ if you trade futures like ES and NQ, want gamma levels and quant models inside TradingView, NinjaTrader or another charting platform you already use, and value heavy live education.

Tradytics vs MenthorQ at a glance

Prices checked October 31, 2026. MenthorQ's pricing page has a yearly toggle but shows no yearly prices, so we list monthly only. "Not listed" means we didn't find it on the vendor's own pages.

What does a gamma level look like next to the flow?

On October 30, 2026, Nvidia (NVDA) closed at $205.25, down 3.94%. Tradytics' dealer gamma showed total gamma of $50.31M. Positive means dealers' hedging trades against the move, which tends to dampen it. The call wall sat at $212.5, the put wall at $185, and the biggest strike was $212.5 at $35.20M.

The options tape added what a level can't. Despite the drop, NVDA's net options premium was $19.61M, a slight bullish lean, and at 11:55 AM ET a single block of 52,800 January 15, 2027 $180 calls carried $172.81M in premium. A gamma map tells you where hedging may concentrate. The tape tells you who is putting money where, and how much. That pairing is the main reason to pick Tradytics over a levels-only tool.

Where MenthorQ wins

• Futures. MenthorQ publishes gamma levels on futures options such as ES and NQ, and says it is the only one doing so. Tradytics covers US stocks, ETFs and their options, so futures traders are better served by MenthorQ.
• Inside your charting platform. Its levels and models come to you in TradingView, NinjaTrader, TrendSpider, ATAS, Quantower, Bookmap, Sierra Chart, MotiveWave or TradeStation. If you already live in one of those, you don't have to switch screens.
• A generous free plan. No card, the QUIN AI assistant, a delayed preview of more than 50 models, more than 400 wiki guides and 500 academy lessons.
• Live education. Academy, webinars and mentorship meetings, and nine live trading sessions a week on Pro.
• A 7-day money-back guarantee and one-click cancelling, per its pricing page.
• Crypto coverage, alongside stocks, indices and futures.

Where Tradytics wins

• The options tape. MenthorQ's models run on volume and open interest; it doesn't list a trade-by-trade options flow. Tradytics shows every large US options print from OPRA, live to the second on Live and Pro, with side, size, open interest, Vol/OI, type (sweep, block, split) and tags such as Opening and Spread.
• Dark pool prints and levels. Prints within about 15 minutes of their report, plus levels where the most dark pool dollars printed over 10 sessions. MenthorQ doesn't list dark pool data.
• Price. Live is $39 a month against MenthorQ Premium at $129, and Pro is $69 against MenthorQ Pro at $349, as of October 2026.
• Research on every US stock and ETF. Each options page has net flow, the expected move, implied volatility term and smile, open interest with max pain and dealer levels; each dark pool page has the day's prints and levels.
• An AI analyst that pulls the data itself. It decides what it needs (flow, dark pool prints, gamma, prices, news, the scanner), shows its steps and answers with cards it builds. More in what you can ask it.
• Portfolio and API. Link your broker read only on any plan, see portfolio factors and versus on Live and Pro, and get a JSON API and MCP server on Pro.
