What you see

Single click: the leg popup

A single click opens a popup on the cell with:

• Legs: each leg as BUY or SELL, quantity, strike and CE/PE.
• Margin for the basket and Qty / 1 Cr, which is how many of this spread ₹1 crore of margin covers.
• Charges (RT): round-trip statutory charges in points, worked out from the rates in your Profile.
• Create Alert, Show Chart and, for some brokers, Buy / Sell.

Show Chart: the legs chart

Show Chart opens a full-screen chart of the spread's net price. It adds up the 1-minute candles of each leg, with a plus sign for sold legs and a minus sign for bought legs. It shows Min, Live and Max. Pick an Interval (1m, 5m, 15m, 1h, 1d) and a Lookback (1d, 5d, 7d for equity; up to 30d for MCX).

Double click: marks

Double-click a cell to mark it with a highlight so you can watch it. Double-click again to remove the mark. Marks are saved to your account.

Create Alert

Create Alert opens a form without leaving the sheet:

• Strike Specific watches this exact contract. ATM Based follows the same position relative to ATM (at-the-money) as spot moves.
• Falls below or Rises above a level. Live fills in the current value.
• + Add lowest straddle condition adds a second condition joined with AND.
• One-shot pauses the alert after it fires once.

Broker basket Buy / Sell

If you signed in with Zerodha, Alice Blue or FYERS, the popup shows one Buy and one Sell button. Buy sends the legs as listed. Sell reverses every leg. The legs open as a basket on your broker's own page, where you can check them and place the order. Quintal Mind places no orders. With other sign-ins, the buttons do not appear.

Combo analysis panel

Clicking a combo butterfly cell also opens a panel on the right. It shows:

• BUY and SELL values, Mid, Quoted width and Expiry in.
• Legs & LTP with each leg's bid and ask.
• Payoff at expiry with breakevens and Open in Payoff.
• Historical (NET or WINGS; 1D, 5D, 1M, ALL).
• Fair value · flat vol, Position greeks, OI at the six strikes, Across this column and Z-score & distribution.

Bell curve overlay

The bell-curve button in the left panel (or Bell curve overlay in the profile menu) compares live NIFTY and NIFTY NEXT combo cells with historical bell-curve data at a similar straddle level. Set Δ in steps of 5 to shift the straddle level being tracked, then press Apply. Press Clear to turn it off.
