Exporting GEX Data as CSV

TL;DR
  • GEX Radar has a CSV button in the chart controls that downloads the current view as a comma-separated file.
  • The file has four columns: Strike, Call GEX, Put GEX, Net GEX — for Excel, Python, or your own records.
  • It reflects the ticker and DTE view you are looking at when you click it.
  • No upgrade needed — the CSV button is not restricted by plan.
  • To save a chart image, use the capture button in Chart Lab. GEX Radar has no image export.

What the CSV contains

GEX Radar has a CSV button in the chart controls, next to the view toggles. Clicking it downloads the strike-by-strike data behind the chart you are currently looking at, as a plain comma-separated file named gexboard_{TICKER}_{date}.csv.

Four columns, one row per strike:

gexboard_SPY_2026-09-04.csv
Strike,Call GEX,Put GEX,Net GEX
765,1840512340,-2104883210,-264370870
766,2233910480,-1988204410,245706070
767,3011477220,-1740339650,1271137570
768,2688201900,-1512668300,1175533600
The header row is exact; the values below it are illustrative.

Open interest and traded volume are not in the file. The GEX figures are already gamma-weighted open interest, so what you get is the exposure per strike rather than the raw contract counts behind it.

✎
No upgrade required. The CSV button is not restricted by plan — if you can see the chart, you can download the file.

How to export

Step 1 — set up the view you want. Pick the ticker and the DTE view (0DTE, 1DTE, Weekly, Monthly or the aggregate). The file follows whichever view is active when you click.

Step 2 — click CSV. The button sits in the chart controls above the GEX profile, alongside the NET / GROSS / CALLS / PUTS / CUM / OI toggles. The file downloads immediately — no dialog, no configuration.

Step 3 — open it. Excel, Google Sheets, or straight into pandas with read_csv. It is plain text with a header row.

⚠
One thing to know before you build on it: the file is a snapshot of the moment you clicked, not a time series. The open interest behind those figures is settled overnight and fixed for the session, while gamma is recomputed against the live spot price — so two files pulled an hour apart on the same day will differ, and the difference is the gamma, not new positioning. This article explains that distinction in full. If you need history rather than snapshots, that is what GEX History is for.

What to use it for

Use case How
Custom analysis Import into Excel, Python or R and build your own models on the per-strike exposure.
Trade journal Save the file at the moment of entry so you have the exact structure you traded against, not a memory of it.
Studying level significance Collect the file daily and pair it with price data to see how price behaved around the walls and the flip over time.
Sharing a chart Use the capture button in Chart Lab, which saves the chart as an image and copies it to your clipboard.

For quant-oriented work the CSV is the starting point, but be deliberate about what you are measuring: the walls and the flip are model outputs, not observed prices, and they are more useful read as zones than as tick-precision targets. Our methodology, including where it differs from other platforms and why, is written up in Why Platforms Show Different GEX Levels.

CSV export is already yours

The CSV button sits in the chart controls on GEX Radar — no upgrade needed. To save a chart as an image, use Chart Lab, which has its own capture button.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I export the chart as an image?

Not from GEX Radar — it has no image export. Chart Lab does: its capture button saves the chart as a PNG and copies it to your clipboard at the same time, so you can paste it straight into a note or a message.

Is CSV export available on Starter?

Yes. The CSV button has no plan check — it is available on every plan that can open the chart. What differs by plan is which tickers you can view: Starter covers ten, Pro and Trader cover the full list.

Why isn't open interest in the file?

The file carries the gamma exposure per strike rather than the raw contract counts it was computed from. If the raw open interest is what you need, the OI view on the chart shows it by strike.
