what are you hoping to do with software? For analytics there used to be a program called microhedge that was widely used at CBOE. I do not know if that is still available or not. If software means an overlay to generate ideas I'd recommend follow the smart money dot com by Jon and Pete Najarian. Their book is "free" and provides great insight on proven methods that they use.

Best of luck.
Dan

Rather than idea suggestions, I was thinking of decision helpers, a least a pricer, POP, margin calculator etc.

To give an idea, I would like to retrieve at IB an environnement similar to the one of ToS + tastyworks. Their tools are very practical !

Under “individual” > “software vendors”, there is plenty of dedicated software to options. Wondering if any of them stand out...
