Was hoping for a freebie (of course) but would pay if needed.

I'm trying to do a "rough" backtest of a QQQQ options strategy. Is there a way to get options pricing data from several month ago? thanks.
Optionetic's Platinum has it very nicely. http://www.optionetics.com/

Curious - what software are you using?
Commercial or proprietary?
I've looked at almost all software for backtesting options and
none offers genuine backteting.
Try these sites below. I suggest you pay a vendor so that
you get good clean data. It's worth it.
