Hello everyone,
I'm going to begin a subscription to iVolatility.com's Options Scanner Suite here shortly. I'm using it to scan for favorable short calendar spreads where front month ATM/OTM options are trading at lower volatility levels than ATM/OTM back month options which are trading at higher volatility levels. Does anyone recommend another program that searches for the same thing, and does a better or even similar job. Thanks for your opinions.

That's the general idea, yes. I'm looking for comparable software to use along with iVolatility to compare ease of use. I enjoy making my life complicated. I don't need motivation in that department, only direction. That's where you come in.
