Find candidates faster

The scanner helps narrow the universe before you inspect contract details. It is built for research, not trade execution.

  • Filter by symbol list, asset type, expiration, score, width, and credit.
  • Review IV rank, price context, liquidity, and generated strategy scores.
  • Use the dashboard to compare several candidates side by side.
  • Use API access to feed candidates into your own workflow.

Premium

Sort by credit and risk

Compare credit received against spread width and contract liquidity.

Volatility

Use IV rank before selling premium

Bring volatility context into the scanner instead of treating every setup equally.

Workflow

Research first, decide manually

Use generated candidates as a research queue, not as automatic trade instructions.
