Optionize builds and runs automated options trading systems.
Recording, evaluation, and automated execution for index, stock, and crypto options.
What we build
Market data
Recording. Option chain quotes are recorded at high resolution while the session runs. Short-dated option quote history cannot be bought back after expiry, so anything not captured at the time is gone for good. The archive is the reference every later measurement is made against.
Evaluation
Replay. Strategy logic is replayed against recorded sessions rather than against summary bars. Execution costs are modelled as part of the replay, so parameters come from what was measured rather than from what was assumed.
Execution
Automation. Strategies run automatically with defined risk on every position. Controls are deterministic: hard loss caps, fail-closed behaviour when a dependency is unavailable, and no discretionary override once a strategy is live.
Index options (SPX), stock options, and crypto options.
How we approach risk
Defined risk only
Every position has a known worst case at the time it is opened. No naked short exposure.
Cost is measured, not estimated
Execution cost is modelled from recorded quotes, because in short-dated options it usually decides whether a strategy is viable at all.
Rules, not discretion
Entry, exit, and sizing are encoded. A live strategy is not overridden by hand.
Fail closed
If market data, connectivity, or a risk check is unavailable, the system stops rather than continues.
Optionize describes capability here, not results. Nothing on this site reports the performance of any strategy.
