Option Analysis Software

[satori69]

Which otions analysis software would you reccomend?

Is there anything out there that works well for under $1,000?
Has anyone tried optimal-trader ?
Is there anything as good as OptionVue, but for less $ ?

I personally have not used it but I have heard good things about <a href="http://www.marketgear.com/index.jsp">OPUS</a>. It's a monthly fee of about $60 for use and data.

I should add that the Think or Swim platform has a LOT for options analysis built in. P/L graphs, scanners, back testing, probabilities, etc.

If you want TOS, though, you have to sign up for their brokerage.
