Greetings --
Paraphrasing by friend's t-shirt -- "so many options, so little time."If the plan is to trade options as an alternative to trading the underlying, develop the system using the underlying, then perform analysis of alternative option choices using an external program -- perhaps one dedicated to options analysis, perhaps your broker's platform, or a spreadsheet.

Hi,
can AmiBroker be used for options trading and for backtesting options trading
strategies?
I think the database structure should have the following additional fields
important with options:
Bid, Ask
I'm not sure whether AB has these fields.
OTOH I think I saw somewhere that OpenInterest (OI) was mentioned,
so is this field already available in the AB database?
Would be good if someone could give a summary of suitability of AB for options
trading. Thx.
