Best options software to calculate "what ifs"?

  1. What options software allows you to calculate all the "what ifs" with a position in real time? I'm tired of calculating those out manually. Thanks!

    Optionetics' Platinum does that.

    TOS provides that for the account holders for free. u just adjust the price & date.
     
  4. Seems a bit expensive.

    - $3500 for the 2 day seminar
    - $1000 for the software (I don't know for sure, I think I read that somewhere at ET.)
    - $60/month for data service
    - $500 for a new PC to run Windows (oh wait, it's probably more like $1000 to run Vista.)

    Optionstar can instantly calculate "what ifs"
    spread risk graphs in streaming real time with
    an interactive brokers acct, or free delayed.

    No subscription fees whatsoever.. only a
    one time charge of $299 for the software.

    "Optionetics" is a big business to make money.

    Now there is better & lower price alternatives provided by TOS or others.
     
  7. There's visual options, too, which I am planning to evaluate over the weekend.
     
  8. A pretty good one is the Position Simulator at 888options.com

    There are a few other free ones I've found online but so far I like that one and TOS.
     
  9. I'm curious to hear about the conclusions you've reached during your evaluation. Please respond back to us with your opinion, good or bad.
