FAQs

What are the definitions of the attributes?

Leg attributes are consideration given to the various components of an option leg such as delta.

How is comparing "leg attributes" different from comparing "opportunity attributes"?

Comparing leg attributes focuses only on one leg of an options strategy.

If I am only wanting to look a specific leg attribute, why do I need to select a position type?

Because the position type determines what legs will be chosen and in what order.

What is the time frame of the data we are comparing, is it every bot run or the prior days data?

The bot references market conditions at each scheduled interval.

Can I group multiple criteria into a single decision?

Yes, you can group and nest multiple decisions with "and/or" functionality.
