Does anyone really trade with option calculators? I see these as nothing but an "edge-losing" tool

I use it for "what if" analysis. Well, I don't use those free calculators mentioned above, but I certainly do use an analysis tool that has a calculator built in. I don't use it to find theoretically underpriced or overpriced options.

They can be useful.

For example in ¡what if¢ scenario Risk analysis.

Visualizing PL scenarios with the passage of time. (Of course in this simple case you can make it without a calculator but things can get more complicated.)
