Options screener
It analyzes the 400 most liquid US stocks and due to a special algorithm chooses the most relevant assets to trade. With this tool you’ll be able to effectively trade stock options and see all their advantages.
How the options screener works
The screener saves you time and identifies the most promising assets to trade that are currently in flats and at the same time it takes into account conditional «high cost» or «cheapness» of underlying options. These signals can be used in options trading and in classic stock trading.
Options. Trading signals of the screener are based on a simple principle – buying “cheap” options and selling “expensive” ones. It has been designed primarily to trade straddles and strangles. In fact, when the market is in a flat or triangle, we can see a strong price movement in the near future. When trading vanilla options, regardless of market direction anticipation, you can benefit from the increased volatility.
Stocks. Sigma index lets you quickly identify assets with low volatility (flats and triangles) and high volatility (trends) which helps you choose stocks which match your approach to trading.
