Have an idea for an options strategy? Great! Setup your strategy, including entry and exit filters, and run a new 0DTE or next day backtest using 1-minute historical options data.
Once the backtest is done running you'll see the performance history, including a breakdown of every backtested position, critical stats, monthly P/L returns, and detailed trade logs.
Quickly spin up new variations to view side-by-side and see how different variables, trade management, or entry/exit timing impacts the performance of your strategy.
Combine the results of up to four backtests into one portfolio P/L curve to simulate what a group of options strategies could do if traded together at one time.
Take any backtest you love and instantly create a bot that automatically trades the strategy for you using the exact details and settings you already backtested.
