Hi There,

Does any one trade options with Sierra Charts?

I think its a great platform and would like to use it to trade options with Sierra Charts.

Does anyone do it?
 
It would be great, but I've found that importing the individual options strikes into Sierra Charts problematic (i.e. I use the midpoint of the bid-ask to get more composite data of individual option strikes), but Sierra Charts will only import the trades which are usually not frequent enough to create a short term chart...They've suggested a workaround, but I've yet to find a good way to trade options thru them (ideally semi-automated) to get around the rules about posting simultaneous bids/offers in option's strikes.

It probably can be done easily enough...All I'm saying is that it would be great to import the data formatting from IB into Sierra Charts and then be able to use bracket orders like any other contract...
