Last year I subscribed the CBOE end of day options data for all symbols. It costed $600 for a year. It was expensive compared to other data providers, but I picked them because they supposedly provided higher quality data. A few days ago, I received an email about updated subscription for the same data but at a much higher price of $2500, a whooping 300% increase. I don't know about its past price increase history, but this kind of price hike is just crazy.
Huge CBOE options data price hike
- Thread starter LM3886
- Start date
Im sure its worth it
it’s because of…. Ummmm…. Gas prices.
$2500 for end of day data, not even real time data?
Isnt end of day data effectively delayed data, which is normally pretty much free.

Just curious where you get delayed data for free? Not for just a few symbols, for all symbols.
That's right. It was already announced sometime ago, at the beginning of the year. There are a few alternative providers, though.
Can you name a few with good data quality?
Market data remains free in the crypto space and FTX is moving forward with plans for stocks. Days are numbered for the "pay for data" model.
