I've used OptionVue since 2006. The user interface still feels like Windows 95, but the software gives me accurate risk charts for analyzing option positions.
Data is expensive if you buy it from OptionVue. They do support eSignal so if you need to trade non-US instruments, you should be able to get the data into OV6.
OV has been around for 25 years and you can do it all... equities, futures options, weeklies, LEAPS, etc. I have the PRO version and the volatility modeling is excellent.
I do my modeling with it and execute trades in my broker platform. It would be nice if it was more integrated.
Cons are:
- Price
- Interface is dated
- No interface to my broker
Pros
- 30 minute historical back testing
- Accurate margins (including SPAN margin for futures)
- Very good volatility modeling
- It just works.
Summary
OptionVue 6 isn't the cheapest software, but it does what I need it to do and I trust the results. It's an old and well used hammer in my option trading toolbox.
