V.16:14 (684-685): Product Review: OptionTrader 98 Professional Edition by John Sweeney
Product Description
OptionTrader 98 Professional Edition (Austinsoft Incorporated). Options data analysis software for trading sheets and trade search. by John Sweeney
When last we saw OpCalc Professional, the precursor to OptionTrader 98, I described it as an options calculator with some data acquisition problems and a nifty trade search capability. OptionTrader 98 pretty much eliminates the data problems and spiffies up the output while retaining the trade-scanning strength. The result is a very cost-efficient options analysis program you could use for daily trading.
Actually, that’s how the program got started. The principals at AustinSoft will probably be on the trading floor at the World Trade Center if you call to chat about the software. OptionTrader 98 benefits from this hands-on involvement.
For instance, daily trading sheets (Figure 1) can be generated by OptionTrader 98. These tell you where prices should be given underlying and just about anything else. That’s because AustinSoft lets you set the columns and rows to more than 100 different fields, from greeks† to implied volatility. If you don’t want to wait for a computer to come up with a number, check your sheet. This even works for spreads.
