Risk analysis front end software for IB

[The Dutchman]

Hi guys,

I would like to know if there is a good option front end platform for IB. Something like the risk analyzer in TOS because the risk analysis software from IB is just afwul in my opinion. Thanks in advance.

The Hoadley Excel add-in system now connects with IB. I don't think you can download your positions, but you can set up a spreadsheet with your positions, and it will update in real-time with quotes from IB. It also contains an "options strategy evaluation tool" and an "open position manager." Perhaps the latter suits your needs best. The package is a bargain at $100 US - in euros that's probably less than you spend on coffee in a day. You can read about it at www.hoadley.net
