# ConvexValue > A high-performance desktop terminal for live options analytics: build dashboards to monitor the market, for 5,000+ stocks. Daily options buy rankings have dated pages; stock pages cover the most traded symbols and symbols that entered a top-10 list. Browse from the stock and all-days indexes. The ConvexValue Terminal is an analytics tool for active stock and options traders: it shows what is in the options market (the trades, the open positions, implied volatility and what option prices imply), so that its users can decide for themselves. Each view is a module opened by a command, such as `flow`, and modules are combined into split-pane dashboards in a desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux. ConvexValue does not publish predictions, trade recommendations or performance records. A membership costs $99.99/month or $949 a year, and can be cancelled at any time. ## Pages - [ConvexValue Terminal: market and options analytics, live](https://convexvalue.com/): A high-performance desktop terminal for live options analytics: build dashboards to monitor the market, for 5,000+ stocks. $99.99/month, cancel any time. - [What should I trade today?
