Best method for graphing multileg positions?

D

drcha

I need a way to graph positions that will show me the situation on any day I choose--not just today or at expiration. I use IB, and I don't want to change my trading platform. Also, I'm not very techie, so I want something pretty simple, not something with ten thousand bells and whistles that will overwhelm me. Is there anything on the Web? I am willing to pay a fee if it's not too onerous.

thanks!

Last I checked, you can't get the full-up Platinum unless you're an Optionetics student. Instead you get the "Express" version for the same price a student pays for the real version.

Another suggestion: open an account at thinkorswim (TOS). Their platform has a very nice multi-leg risk graph capability.
 
Have you tried the Position Simulator at www.888options.com ? It's pretty nice, but the main limitation is that it only allows up to 4 legs.

You can change the date to any date and change the volatility assumption on that date.

Just go to that website and go to Advanced -> Position Simulator to try it out.

One of the best thing about it I guess is that it is free. :)

is not correct

Anyone can purchase
any Platinum version they
desire and you do not have
to take a seminar

Call Optionetics : 1-888-292-4751, M-F, 7 a.m. - 5 p.m. Pacific Time.
Outside the US: 1-650-802-0700

They will try to sell you Express

Express is simply a 25% subset of the Full Platinum

After communicating with Optionetics customer service a few months ago, I did not get the impression that this was an option.

Thank you for the corrective haiku.
