Historical Database

With over 35 years of trading and 20 years of software development experience, Optionomics has earned a reputation for expertise in the risk management and option trading industry. Over the last 20 years, a meticulous daily process of collecting market prices has been maintained. The accumulation of each day’s data has provided an extensive historical database that collects the open, high, low, close, volume, open interest, days to expiration and the average implied volatility of the options. This has been maintained for all futures contracts. Our database has become one of the most complete historical resources in the industry. We are proud of the fact that collection began in 1987 for Futures and Futures Options and began in 1996 for Stocks and Stock Options. This data provides the foundation for unlimited research potential and the comprehensive database can provide a tremendous base for research.

Over the years, the industry has experienced a wave of different software packages to develop trading systems; however, none has given the trader the ability to back-test in order to develop option-trading systems. Optionomics has had the foresight and practical knowledge to create a powerful option research tool - Option Trading Research (OTR) for just this purpose.

The OTR engine uses the power of Computer Associates’ Open-Ingres. This is an enterprise level database that is one of the most manageable databases on the market today. (with no need for a D.B.A.) OTR provides fast and accurate analysis, which is unparalleled. Contact us to discuss how OTR can aid in your trading.
