The Quintal Mind Alternative to TradingView for Options
India-focused options analytics — live spread scanning and MCX commodity options a general charting platform doesn't cover.
TradingView is the default charting platform for millions of traders worldwide — unmatched charts, Pine Script, alerts, a huge community and multi-asset coverage. For charting, it is hard to beat.
But it is a general-purpose charting tool, not an Indian-options spread scanner. Quintal Mind is built specifically for that: live butterfly, ratio and cross-spread values across every Nifty, BankNifty and Sensex strike, plus full MCX commodity options analytics. It complements TradingView rather than replacing your charts.
