Server instructions

Optionscanner's free options calculators and Learn library, for any assistant. Tools price multi-leg trades (profit_calculator, what_if, list_strategies), compute the expected move, credit and debit spread figures, probability of profit and position size, and search or read the Learn articles, glossary and research. Every figure is a model estimate for education, before commissions and fees. The server holds no account data and places no orders. Each result carries the page on optionscanner.ai it came from; show that link with the numbers.

Known tools 10

profit_calculator

Price any options trade with up to eight legs: maximum profit and loss, breakevens, net credit or debit, the model's chance of profit at expiration and the expected move.

Potential side effects

what_if

What a trade is worth if the stock moves, time passes or implied volatility changes: profit or loss on a chosen date at a chosen stock price, the same at expiration, and the change for one more day, one more volatility point and a one dollar move.

Potential side effects

list_strategies

The eleven standard structures the calculator knows (long call and put, covered call, cash-secured put, the four vertical spreads, iron condor, straddle, strangle), each built on an example stock price with its legs, maximum profit and loss, breakevens and chance of profit, with a link to open each one.

Inferred read-only

expected_move

The one and two standard deviation price ranges the options market is pricing for a stock over a horizon, from the stock price, implied volatility and days ahead.

Inferred read-only

credit_spread

Bull put or bear call credit spread figures: width, maximum profit and loss, breakeven, return on risk, credit-to-width, and the model's chance of profit when implied volatility and days are given.

Inferred read-only

debit_spread

Call or put debit spread figures: width, maximum profit and loss, breakeven, reward to risk, debit-to-width, and the model's chance of profit when implied volatility and days are given.

Inferred read-only

probability_of_profit

The model probability that a stock finishes above or below a price level (a breakeven or a short strike) by a date, from implied volatility, under the lognormal the options market implies.

Inferred read-only

position_size

How many contracts fit a risk budget: account equity, the percent of it risked per trade, and the worst case per contract give the dollar budget, the contract count and the share of equity at risk.

Potential side effects

learn_search

Find the Learn article, glossary term, calculator or research page that answers an options question: strategies, the greeks, implied volatility, IV rank, probability of profit, rolling, assignment, the wheel, screening rules and more.

Inferred read-only

learn_read

The full text of one Learn article, glossary term, calculator page or research page by slug, as Markdown with its link.

Inferred read-only
