Born To Sell Alternative: Modern Covered Call Scanning

Trade the same winning strategies with a faster interface, backtested data, and multi-strategy support

Born To Sell has been a go-to covered call scanner for years, but its interface hasn't kept pace with modern trading tools. DaysToExpiry gives you everything Born To Sell does for covered calls, plus multi-strategy scanning, backtested performance data, and a modern interface that loads instantly. Same strategies, better experience.

The Problem: Legacy Tools Are Slow and Limited

1
Dated Interface — Feels like 2010 with slow page loads and clunky navigation
2
Limited to Covered Calls — No support for cash-secured puts, spreads, or diagonal strategies
3
No Backtested Data — Current opportunities only, no historical performance context
4
Premium Price — $59.99/month for basic functionality without modern features

⚡ Lightning-Fast Scan Interface — Results in seconds, not minutes

📊 Multi-Strategy Support — Covered calls, CSPs, spreads, and diagonals in one place
