It's not hard to find a credit spread...just sell a put and buy a lower put or sell a call and buy a higher call.

From such a scanner I expect that it does also all the necessary calculations of PnL etc. for each spread it finds. Ie. finding the highest lucrative spreads among all tickers and expiration dates. Each candidate shall have a score, and the list shall be sorted... That's the main job IMO of such a scanner.

Here's how Omnieq compares to ours:
They can rank based on its return-to-risk ratio, probability of expiring out of the money, and expected return. We rank on return-to-risk ratio, expected return edge, forecast edge, smoothed IV edge. We sort on many like ask-bid, open interest, and delta.
They have some filtering for options and fundamental information. We have have extensive fundamental filtering and options filtering, about 1000 to their 70.

Silexx does not offer the Option Analytics of CBOE LiveVol Core or Pro yet. I was told they are looking to add that in the "near" future with a look into the CBOE COB. I'm not sure what their time table is.
