Screen and build options strategies
The user gets a list of stocks meeting specific volatility criteria and a constructed strategy (like an iron condor) with stress-test results, facilitating rapid strategy ideation and validation.
How it works
The agent uses the ApexVol MCP server's screening tools to find tickers that match user-defined criteria, such as high IV rank and no upcoming earnings. It then utilizes the strategy builder tools to construct a specific options structure (e.g., iron condor) around metrics like expected move. The agent calculates the probability of profit and stress-tests the position, providing a comprehensive analysis of the potential trade setup.
