OptionSource overview
OptionSource provides a flexible workspace environment and is designed to enable customization of a real-time position page and associated risk analysis tools. The position page is the centerpiece of OptionSource and allows for tracking of any individual option or options portfolio in real time. It comes with a completely flexible set of capabilities:
- Customizable data fields, calculations and volatility settings, as well as display settings and themes
- Easy entry and update of options strike prices to set up and modify your portfolio or strategy
- Controllable market update modes for true “what-if” calculations on your portfolio or trading strategy
- The functionality to duplicate positions or strategies and apply different “what-if” conditions
The risk analysis module allows for the analysis of the effects of market conditions and price changes over time on an options portfolio. It gives you the ability to perform real-time analyses on simple or complex option portfolios and to view the data in graphical and/or data table formats.
