SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill addresses the complexity of evaluating multi-leg options strategies by providing a synthetic backtesting environment that calculates theoretical pricing, Greeks, and portfolio performance without requiring live market data.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Black-Scholes Engine: Synthesizes option prices and Greeks (Delta, Gamma, Theta, Vega) using historical volatility.
  • Multi-Leg Backtesting: Simulates complex strategies like Iron Condors, Butterflies, and Straddles over historical underlying price data.
  • Performance Analytics: Generates comprehensive reports including equity curves, drawdown metrics, and trade-by-trade logs.

Quick Start

Use the options-strategy skill to backtest an iron condor strategy on the underlying asset BTC-USDT for the year 2024.

FAQPage Schema
How do I backtest multi-leg options strategies like iron condors and straddles?

You can backtest multi-leg options strategies by simulating portfolio performance over historical underlying price data using the Black-Scholes model. This engine calculates theoretical pricing, Greeks, and PnL metrics for complex strategies like iron condors, butterflies, and straddles.

Can I calculate options Greeks using historical volatility without live market data?

Yes, you can calculate options Greeks without live market data by synthesizing prices and Greeks like Delta, Gamma, Theta, and Vega using historical volatility. The Black-Scholes engine provides a synthetic backtesting environment for theoretical pricing.

Do I need a signal engine to run options backtesting simulations?

Yes, you need a configured signal engine to run options backtesting simulations. The engine also requires JSON-based parameter definitions to compute Greeks and PnL metrics across various asset classes using historical underlying price data.

What performance analytics are generated when simulating options portfolio performance?

Simulating options portfolio performance generates comprehensive performance analytics reports including equity curves, drawdown metrics, and trade-by-trade logs. These reports help evaluate hedging, volatility trading, and spread analysis strategies.

Does the Black-Scholes model work for backtesting volatility trading strategies across different asset classes?

The Black-Scholes model supports backtesting volatility trading strategies across various asset classes using historical underlying price data. It synthesizes theoretical option prices and computes Greeks for multi-leg strategies without requiring live market data.

What are the limitations of using a synthetic backtesting environment for options pricing?

A synthetic backtesting environment computes theoretical option prices using the Black-Scholes model and historical volatility, meaning it does not reflect real-time market liquidity or slippage. It is designed for evaluating multi-leg strategy performance rather than live execution.
