  1. I have been trading options for 6 months but haven't come across good analysis or data tools. Set alerts when there is abnormal activities or spike in volatility. Analyze option volume and weekly trading activity.

    For stocks I love tradingview.com, but haven't been able to find out any tools for options. What is your most popular tools for options? Happy to pay reasonable amount for good service.
     
  2. learn to program in some high level language, matlab, R, or something.. trying to find a site or an app you can buy won't work

  3. TOS has some capabilities for writing your own scripts and setting alerts that may be adequate for your purposes. It is free, with an account.

    How about learning to read charts? I use this 100%, find trend, find retracement, find entry.

  6. Read Haug, "Option Pricing Formulas" and build your own with his VBA. Also, lots of packages in R.
