I am a former "Index and Option Market" seat holder on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. I have traded Options and Futures professionally for over 30 years. In my view, the Macroption Calculators are simply the best available. I now use 5 of them and find them to be invaluable tools. They are simple to use and comprehensive. Documentation is great and so is technical support. Great tools for a professional or a novice.

Hi, I purchased about 5 of your excel models about 2 years ago having been an ex trader. I am now trialling trading the market in single stock options. Your options are models are really great, but appear to be geared towards index and bond products. Do you know how it might be possible to add an EX dividend date to the pricing models so I can trade stock options? I am unable to correctly price or delta the ATM strike .Thank you for your help.
Comment:
Discrete dividends are supported in the Binomial Option Pricing Calculator, which this customer ended up buying.
Black-Scholes Calculator and Option Strategy Simulator (and Binomial Option Pricing Calculator as well) support continuous dividends, which are easier to work with and sufficiently accurate in most cases (except when the dividend is very soon and very big).

I still think you tool is excellent. I use it daily and don't know what I would do without it. I have one suggestion. I live in Sweden and trade in New York. I would like some way to set the time in OSS for New York time. I have tried changing the time on my desktop but it is clumsy. A way to set New York time in the OSS would be nice.
Comment:
This has a simple solution (which I also use myself). Enter expirations in your local timezone (e.g. 22:15 instead of 16:15 if you trade US markets from Europe). No need to mess with operating system time settings.
who bought Historical Volatility Calculator, ATR Calculator, Implied Volatility Calculator, Option Strategy Simulator, Option Strategy Payoff Calculator, Descriptive Statistics Calculator, Binomial Option Pricing Calculator and RSI Calculator in January 2020
Hi Petr,
I think all the calculators are great. My only feedback is that for the ATR and RSI calcs, it would be handy to be able to calculate 4 or 5 at once (ideally 5) instead of 3 if possible
As an example, especially with the RSI, I like to calculate 10, 20, 60, but it would also be good to be able to add another in at the same time for just 5. Reason being is that its good to see it as far out as 60 for long term, but the 5 can highlight particular flow weeks compared to 10 - and it'd just be good to have the option to graph all at once.
Comment:
In ATR and RSI Calculators, you can draw up to 3 lines (e.g. RSI with 3 different periods) in the chart simultaneously.
It is unlikely this will be expanded to more, because it is sufficient for vast majority of users, but if you really need more lines at the same time, it is possible to customize (generally, all Macroption calculators can be customized).
Hi! I love your OSS product. I was just wondering if it is possible to expand the number of holdings in the calculator to 10 or 20 so I can model my entire portfolio? Thanks again!

Hi there just wondering if it would be possible for you to create or perhaps what it would cost for you to create an Options table importer sheet to bring in and import from say directly this link? http://www.cboe.com/delayedquote/quote-table-download with the idea being that a macro or something could complete those steps automatically from the .dat file and generate an options chain table directly in excel with a shader to generate the ITM/OTM point?
Would just like to also say your website and the calculators are brilliant - well done - its my go to!
Hello Petr,
First of all thank you for making the Option Strategy Simulator. It helps me a lot in visualising what is going on with my strategies. I bought it back in March and worked fine, but recently I stumbled upon a bug. I'm using Office 365 on OSX and since a few months (I guess after some automatic update) the expiration date dropdown shows for example 'nov yyyy' i.s.o. 'nov 2019'. The Days columns still calculates the days to expiration correctly. Can you have a look?
Thank you and kind regards

who bought Black-Scholes Calculator, Option Strategy Simulator and Option Strategy Payoff Calculator in May 2018
I do program VBA and write my own user functions in Excel, although so far your spreadsheets seem so complete that I probably won't make any major changes. They have been very helpful in my understanding of options - more than any other medium that I have studied. I've traded equities for many years, and in the short time that I have spent with options, and especially from doing some simulations in your programs, I have confirmed my original suspicion that as with equities, you still need to have a good understanding of the technical and fundamental basis of stock price movement to profit from the derivatives.
I do appreciate your excellent technical support that is so difficult to find these days.
Very well done! Thank you

who bought Option Strategy Simulator and Black-Scholes Calculator in December 2017 and Binomial Option Pricing Calculator in September 2021
Hi Petr,
I have worked quite a lot with simulations now. I don't think there is anything you forgot. I have just tested out a very funny (my patent) combo. When I ran it on the simulator, it worked fine. What I like is that after certain legs expire, I can just replace them with new legs and continue to expiration. It is also helpful to decide if it is a good time to close an combo before expiration. What I think is really useful is when I am not happy with the way a combo is performing, I can simulate adding a put or selling another call or rolling a strike to another price to tweek the combo. Then I can test it to see if the idea was right before committing to buy/sell.
Also, the simulator tracks live combo's very closely. I can easily see if the market is mispricing legs of a combo as well. And I like that I can use IV for each individual leg.
Great stuff.

Nice work Petr,
I am a nearing retirement Petroleum Engineer that has been using Excel and later VB and Excel, since 1988, and have done some very nice work with them through the years that has turbocharged my career, so I hope you appreciate the compliment.
Your .pdf files are great - very descriptive and your Excel is very clean and straightforward. I haven't peeked at the Macro's but I can imagine they are nice too.
I am very new to the game of options (weeks and days). My old boss and his son are in the game extensively and reached out to me for help. So naturally I started with Black Sholes in Excel, but I had no verification of errors. The $25 was well worth it for verification alone, but yours is far more than mine, so I was able to drop the effort. I hate "compiled software", if I can't calculate it myself in Excel i don't trust the numbers
You have saved me many, many hours, and I look forward to working with your other two products. Great value in my opinion. i'll probably buy the rest of your set, once I've mastered the three. I've been using Goal Seek for Implied Volatility manually - bet you have it in a Macro.

Dear Sir/Madame:
Good day. I just bought the "Option Strategy Payoff Calculator". I took a quick tour and I am impressed with the quality of the file. Though, I was actually looking for the diagonal strategy to be included. I do not know if it's missing or may be it can not be done. Please advise.
Sincerely yours;
Comment:
Calendar and diagonal spreads (and other positions involving multiple expirations) can't be modeled with the Option Strategy Payoff Calculator, because payoff at expiration can't be calculated for them.
For these positions use the Option Strategy Simulator, which this customer also got.

Hello Petr,
Sorry for the late answer. Unfortunately I was on vacation in Thailand and didn't get internet access. So I was unable to receive your e-mail. I really apologize for the inconvenience.
Thanks so much for your support. Today I tried your new file. It works perfect. Thanks so much. I really appreciate your grate support.
Best regards
Petr,
All Good, very happy with the product. I had to use the email rather than website.
Will purchase the other products over the weekend.
If the download doesn't work I'll let you know Monday and you can send them direct via email.
Apologies for all the hassle, old Market Makers tend to be modern technology allergic...!!!

your excel options calculators are something i was looking for for a long time.
is there a way to IMPORT option prices instead of typing it all in ... i use IB (interactive brokers) as well as the tradestation, both live data.
i am getting the strategy simulator as well as the strategy payoff calculator to work with now.
thanks

All the calculators can be linked to external data sources such as Bloomberg BDP, Reuters, broker data feeds - generally anything that can be linked to Excel. For example, you can have the underlying price input updated in real time using data from your broker. Interactive Brokers data works too.
Petr - thanks! Really like it - I've been doing much of it in makeshift excel sheets on my trading sheets - this is exactly what I was needing!

Hello Petr,
I ended up purchasing the Implied Volatility Calculator, the Historical Volatility Calculator and the Option Strategy Simulator. They are all great. Are you going to add the ability to enter a time to expiration of less than 1 day? I deal a lot with very short term options and noticed that the Black-Scholes Calculator had it so I assumed that the Option Strategy Simulator would also have it. It is a feature I really need and I was hoping that I would not have to purchase the other spreadsheet on top of the one I already purchased.
Thanks
Comment:
This was the earliest version of Option Strategy Simulator which only worked with end of day pricing. Now it also works intraday without any limitations.
Over the years, the calculators have been improved and features added also based on customer feedback like this one. It is always welcome and appreciated!

You can model calendars and diagonals in Option Strategy Simulator or Option Portfolio Manager.
