Score and rank options contracts for any ticker using AlphaGBM's multi-factor scoring model (liquidity, IV attractiveness, Greeks balance, risk/reward). Returns scored option chains with the best contracts highlighted. Use when: evaluating which option to trade, finding the best strike/expiry, ranking options by quality. Triggers on: "score AAPL options", "best options for NVDA", "which TSLA call should I buy", "option chain for SPY", "rank META puts".

What This Skill Does

Scores every option contract in a chain using a multi-factor model across 4 strategy types, so you instantly know which contracts have the best risk/reward profile.

  • 60-79: Strong — good trade candidate
  • 40-59: Average — proceed with caution
  • 0-39: Poor — avoid unless hedging

API Endpoints

Get Option Expirations

GET /api/options/expirations/<SYMBOL>

Option Chain Analysis -- Synchronous

POST /api/options/chain-sync
Content-Type: application/json

{"symbol": "AAPL", "expiry_date": "2026-04-17"}

Add ?compact=true for condensed response.

Response includes for each of 4 strategies (Sell Put, Sell Call, Buy Call, Buy Put):

  • Top 10 recommendations sorted by score (0-100)
  • Score breakdown: premium_yield, support/resistance_strength, safety_margin, trend_alignment, probability_profit, liquidity, time_decay
  • ATR safety info (safety_ratio, atr_multiples, is_safe)
  • Risk-return profile: style, risk_level, win_probability
  • Trend analysis: direction, strength, alignment score

Option Chain Analysis -- Async

POST /api/options/chain-async
Content-Type: application/json

{"symbol": "TSLA", "expiry_date": "2026-04-17"}

Returns {"task_id": "uuid"}. Poll with: GET /api/tasks/<task_id>.

Reverse Score

Score a specific contract from known parameters:

POST /api/options/reverse-score
Content-Type: application/json

{"symbol": "AAPL", "option_type": "CALL", "strike": 190, "expiry_date": "2026-02-16", "option_price": 2.50, "implied_volatility": 28}

Batch Chain Analysis

POST /api/options/chain/batch
Content-Type: application/json

{"symbols": ["AAPL", "NVDA"], "expiries": ["2026-04-17", "2026-05-15"]}

Max 3 symbols x 2 expiries per request.

IV Snapshot (instant, no quota cost)

GET /api/options/snapshot/<SYMBOL>

Returns: ATM IV, IV Rank, HV 30d, VRP, VRP level.

Daily Recommendations (no auth required)

GET /api/options/recommendations?count=5

Typical Workflow

  1. Get expirations: GET /api/options/expirations/AAPL
  2. Quick IV check: GET /api/options/snapshot/AAPL (free, no quota)
  3. Run chain analysis: POST /api/options/chain-sync with symbol + expiry
  4. Drill into a specific contract: POST /api/options/enhanced-sync with option_identifier
  5. Compare across tickers: POST /api/options/chain/batch for multi-symbol analysis

Quota

  • Free: 1 options analysis/day
  • Plus: 1,000/month
  • Pro: 5,000/month
  • Snapshot and recommendations endpoints cost nothing.

Output Formatting Tips

  • Scores are 0-100; present top picks in a table sorted by score descending.
  • Always show the score breakdown factors so users understand why a contract scored well.
  • Highlight ATR safety info (is_safe flag) prominently for sell strategies.
  • Include the risk-return style label (steady_income, balanced, etc.) for quick context.

Example Queries

User SaysWhat Happens
"Score AAPL options"Full chain with scores, top picks highlighted
"Best NVDA call to buy"Filtered to calls, sorted by score descending
"TSLA puts for next Friday"Filtered by expiry + type
"Which SPY option has the best risk/reward?"Sorted by risk_reward factor

Mock Data

Demo tickers available without API key: AAPL, NVDA, SPY, TSLA, META. Uses realistic option chain snapshots from mock-data/.
