What's inside

Everything you need to research US options — historically.

Seven core data products covering the full lifecycle of a US option contract, from EOD price history to real historical backtesting.

Interactive Options Charts

Full EOD price history for any contract with simulated minute-by-minute curves derived from underlying stock feeds and greeks — replay any trading day in detail.

EOD Options Chain Data

Full end-of-day chain snapshots — bid, ask, last, volume, open interest, IV, and full greeks — for every expiration across 5,000+ US tickers.

Options Return Statistics

Pre-computed distribution of returns for ITM, ATM, and OTM contracts — win rates, average P&L, and decay curves broken down by moneyness and days-to-expiry.

Minute-by-Minute Stock Data

Underlying stock prices at one-minute resolution. Feed directly into your models, overlay on options charts, or use for precise entry/exit analysis.

JSON REST API

Every dataset queryable via a clean REST API returning JSON — by ticker, date, strike, expiration, or contract type. Free to use, no API key required. An optional paid key unlocks higher usage.

18+ Years of History

Select tickers carry more than 18 years of EOD options history — back-test across multiple market cycles, regimes, and volatility environments.

Real Historical Options Backtesting

Run full portfolio simulations using real EOD options data — not synthetic prices. Test single legs, spreads, iron condors, covered calls, straddles, calendar spreads, and more across 18+ years of history. Supports multi-leg strategies, stock legs, real bid/ask execution modeling, per-contract fees, stop-loss / stop-profit, and scheduled rebalancing. Available as both a guided web UI and a full REST API.

Options Backtester

Test strategies on real historical options data.

The backtester runs a day-by-day portfolio simulation using real EOD options prices — not synthetic approximations. Open, hold, and close positions exactly as you would in a live account, then inspect every row of the results.

Choose from 20+ pre-built strategies in the Simple Backtester wizard, or build any arbitrary multi-leg strategy in the Advanced mode. Both modes expose the same underlying engine and produce the same detailed output.

Real mode buys at the ask, sells at the bid, trades whole 100-share contracts, and deducts your broker's per-trade and per-contract fees. Ideal mode uses midpoint pricing and fractional contracts — useful for quick strategy validation before committing to real-mode figures.

20+ Pre-Built Strategies

Covered calls, cash-secured puts, straddles, strangles, iron condors, calendar spreads, vertical spreads, and more — each with a payoff diagram and guided parameter setup.

Stops & Rebalancing

Set stop-loss and stop-profit thresholds per leg. Configure rolling rebalance periods to model strategies that continuously sell premium or roll positions before expiry.

Stock Legs & Covered Strategies

Add a long or short equity position alongside your options. Use stock-main mode to size the stock first and let the options follow — the right model for covered calls and protective puts.

Rich Results & CSV Export
