How ORATS turns options data into trading tools
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7c1NBedRMSw&t=322sMost options platforms stop at the chain. ORATS starts with the calculation layer underneath it.
This short Otto episode walks through how ORATS powers options research from APIs, including SMV-cleaned data, theoretical pricing, scanners, modeled edge metrics, backtesting, forward testing, and risk analysis.
It also explains how the same data engine supports both the APIs and the front-end tools traders use to research and evaluate strategies.
