Options Analyzer by eodhistoricaldata

Name: Options Analyzer
Author: EodHistoricalData

File contents

Skill: options-analyzer

Purpose

Analyze US equity options using EODHD Marketplace data — options chains with Greeks, implied volatility analysis, contract comparison, and strategy evaluation.

Trigger

Activate when the user asks for:

Options chain for a ticker
Implied volatility analysis or IV rank
Greeks analysis (delta, gamma, theta, vega)
Options strategy evaluation (covered calls, spreads, straddles, etc.)
Put/call ratio or options flow
Unusual options activity
Options expiration analysis

Workflow

Identify the underlying — resolve to TICKER.US format (US options only)
Fetch options contracts list — us-options-underlyings for available expirations
Fetch options chain — us-options-eod for specific expiration with Greeks
Fetch underlying price — eod or real-time for current price context
Analyze — IV analysis, strategy payoff, Greeks exposure
Compile options report

Note: Options endpoints (us-options-eod, us-options-underlyings) are not wired into the eodhd_client.py helper — call them with curl per the endpoint docs. Access depends on your plan/tier: on many paid plans the US options endpoints return data directly (HTTP 200), so don't assume a separate Marketplace add-on is required — verify against your account before telling the user it's gated. Option chains can be large (multi-MB); summarize, don't dump raw JSON into the chat.
