STRUCTUREX OPTIONS CONTEXT - Smart Market Bias Framework

█ WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES

STRUCTUREX OPTIONS CONTEXT is a pre-trade decision framework, not a signal generator.

It answers five critical questions before a trader opens an options chain or considers execution:

- What is the directional bias? (Bull / Bear / Neutral)
- Is trading allowed, cautioned, or blocked right now?
- Is the market trending or ranging?
- Is volatility in expansion or decay risk?
- Is the current session suitable for trading?

This tool is designed to filter bad trades, protect against chop, and improve discipline.

█ WHAT THIS INDICATOR DOES NOT DO

- No BUY or SELL signals
- No trade entries or exits
- No option chain analysis
- No strike, expiry, or contract selection
- No profit, performance, or financial claims
- No alerts in v1.0

This indicator provides context only, not trading advice.

█ WHO THIS IS FOR

- Options traders (direction & permission before opening chains)
- Futures, forex, crypto, and equity traders (bias & regime context)
- Discretionary traders who already have an execution strategy
- Traders who want fewer trades, better timing, and clearer conditions

█ SUPPORTED MARKETS

Although designed for options decision-making, this indicator works on any chart:

- Indices (SPX, NQ, ES, DAX, FTSE)
- Stocks & ETFs (QQQ, SPY, AAPL, TSLA, etc.)
- Forex pairs
- Crypto assets

The logic is applied to the underlying price, which is exactly how professional options traders operate.

█ HOW TO USE

Best results using this stack order:

1. STRUCTUREX SESSIONS (bottom layer)
2. STRUCTUREX OPTIONS CONTEXT (middle layer)
3. STRUCTUREX CORE (top layer - structure/liquidity)

Practical Example:
- Bias = BULL
- Permission = GO
- Regime = TREND
- Environment = EXPAND

Only then does a trader consider opening the options chain.
If Permission = NO, do nothing.

█ WORKS STANDALONE OR STACKED

This indicator works perfectly on its own for bias and permission context.

For complete market analysis, stack with other STRUCTUREX modules:

STRUCTUREX SESSIONS — Session timing and kill zone visualization
STRUCTUREX CORE — Market structure, order blocks, and liquidity zones

Recommended stack order (bottom to top):
1. SESSIONS (timing context)
2. OPTIONS CONTEXT (bias & permission)
3. CORE (structure & zones)

Each module is independent — use what fits your workflow.
