What I mean by more freetime is a time off the 9-5 job

You work remote or in office on this less demanding company?

As a retail trader I prefer desktop heavy apps rather than web based ones. I believe what is missing in the crypto space is an algotrading app that allows me to code my own strategies and indicators.

Yes, many! Through out my career I had to implement from scratch two sorting algorithms. First was to sort subtitles on a playing video in javascript in real-time. The second was a custom sorting algorithm of text blocks on an image.

Shameless plug: postoptions.app is my side project. a Real-time option screener. I'm happily serving few happy paying clients.

"I see some naive schmuck". Chill man, why the hostility? I'm only using free data to test it. I have no problem start paying for their API if the idea is validated.

I'm using Tradier API for market data. Greeks included. I don't do any calculations.

Thank you for the feedback. Can I ask how one can use this volatility comparison in his options trading? Please enlighten me, any resource on this ?

Thank you for your valuable feedback and questions. Indeed some ETF are not showing although they are in the DB, needs checking. - An entry box is something to add, thanks for pointing out. - Real-time data from Tradier is costly. I was looking at IBKR and maybe I will switch to their API. But anyhow real-time is an overkill for now, maybe in the future. - Yes for entering orders, I use Tastyworks. I first validate the opportunities with real time data and enter the trade on the Tastyworks platform. - I actually made decent profits from selling Theta. The trick is to not overtrade and be ok if a week passes without making a trade. But my main investing strategy is a Buy and hold on a world index.

Totally agree with your remarks regarding the interface.

Thank you for your feedback. What made me make this screener is what you called "sequence of choices" I found on most other screeners. What I wanted as a user was to have full control on screening criteria. Maybe it is overwhelming for some. But from my point of view the more I had criteria the better

Yes. backtesting is such a complexe tool. I usually use Tastworks for backtesting after filtering out some instruments with a screener.

Tradier API. Their free api has a 15 minutes delay with a limited threshold per minute.

Do you mean that options expiring today should have a DTE equals 0 ?
