Trade panels (spreadsheets) are for educational purposes and each include an example trade that you may modify or simply add more trades to analyze and compare.

We'll offer hints, but You choose the strikes and enter the bid-ask values that are current or that you might expect to recieve... and we'll do all the trade comparison math instantly.

To select strikes- begin with the top field (the long option in debit trades), and the panel will make the best guess on the short option which you can accept or change. Strikes can be selected from the pull down menu, or from type-ahead navigation which will attempt to complete the strike values as you type. Press enter to accept the new value, or esc to revert to the old value.

To enter bid,ask or commission values-

• click any number cell to begin editing that cell
• press enter to accept the value and move down to the next cell
• press esc to abandon the current edit
• change a value and hesitate to accept the value but not move to the next cell

The title bars, column headings, bold text, and numbers in contrasting colors all contain comments about that item. Enable hints and hover the mouse over the words of interest to see the comments at the top of your browser.

Trades, or groups of trades, may be managed by selecting all related rows, from top to bottom, in order.

Click a text field to select the top row, and then shift-click to select the last row, then press the move or delete button.

All rows are deleted if you close or refresh the page in your browser.

The ROI target value is unique to each panel and is relevant when the ROI conditions are in view. The spreadsheet updates immediately when this value is changed.

It may take 2-3 seconds to show (or hide) the ROI conditions view if your computer is heavily loaded or if you have many trades in the spreadsheet.

Each trade panel is movable while it is in the closed, or collapsed state, with simultaneous click and drag using the mouse. This gives you more flexibility and usable space within your browser window.

The trade panels in use should be kept in order (Call_Cal, Bull_Put, Bull_Call) because they are designed to slide down when each panel is expanded, or grows as trades are added.

A trade panel to be ignored can simply be moved out of view.
