    Hello,
    this may have been asked before but I was not able to find a similar thread in the forum.

    I am looking for an "app" or script that downloads stocks and futures option prices via API from IB TWS into a .csv file or into Excel.

    I just need a "snapshot" at a precise time of the day, e.g. at 3PM Chicago time.

    I am only looking for one expiry at a time, e.g. the 7 days expiry chain, I do not need all the expiries.

    Also I do not need prices real-time streaming, I just need a snapshot at a point in time, as I said.

    Does anyone know if there is an app like this ready to buy off-the-shelf?

    Thanks.
