Options Portfolio Clarity

The Option Omega Alternative That Also Tracks Your Live Portfolio

Backtesting alone ends where your portfolio begins. Days to Expiry gives you dedicated backtests when you want historical context — plus roll-adjusted cost basis, per-leg P&L, multi-broker sync, and a weekly execution plan on the book you actually hold. Option Omega Premium is $249.99/mo billed annually (verified 2026-09-23); Days to Expiry Pro is $50/mo.

Option Omega is options backtesting and automation software: test strategies against 1-minute bid/ask data from January 2013, then automate the winner at Tastytrade, Tradier, Schwab, or TradeStation. That is genuinely useful — but a backtest validates rules; it does not track what you actually sold, rolled, or got assigned. Days to Expiry is the option omega alternative built for the other half of the workflow: connect Interactive Brokers via Flex Query or 32+ brokers via SnapTrade, see roll-adjusted true cost basis and per-leg P&L on live positions, follow an auto-generated weekly execution plan for covered calls and cash-secured puts, and run dedicated wheel and options backtests when you want historical assignment rates. Option Omega Premium (backtesting + automation) is $249.99/mo billed annually; Days to Expiry Pro is $50/mo. Both source-checked 2026-09-23.

Problem

Option Omega Backtests Strategies. It Doesn't Track Your Live Portfolio.

Backtests End Where Your Portfolio Begins — A backtest validates rules; it doesn't reconcile the CSPs, rolls, and assignments in your real account

No Roll-Adjusted Cost Basis — Public pages describe backtesting and automation, not live cost basis after rolls (optionomega.com, 2026-09-23)

Automation Executes, It Doesn't Explain — Live rules trade at supported brokers; they don't produce per-leg P&L or a weekly plan for your book

Premium Is $249.99/mo Billed Annually — Automation plus backtesting at $249.99/mo (optionomega.com, 2026-09-23), and still not a portfolio tracker

How it works

Get started in 3 simple steps

1

Connect Your Broker

Sync Interactive Brokers via Flex Query or connect 32+ brokers through SnapTrade (read-only OAuth where supported). Positions, fills, rolls, and assignments become the source of truth — no manual test imports.

2

See Portfolio Truth

Review roll-adjusted true cost basis, per-leg P&L, coverage, and open risk across the strategies you actually ran — including the ones a backtest never would have taken.

3

Backtest, Then Plan the Week

Run dedicated wheel and options backtests for historical assignment rates by strike and DTE. Then let the weekly execution plan turn your live book into a bounded action list: rolls, closes, and new CC/CSP candidates. Query the same data from Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about getting started

Is Days to Expiry a complete Option Omega alternative?

For a specific gap, yes: the live portfolio half. Option Omega is strong options backtesting and automation software — 1-minute bid/ask data from January 2013, up to 8-leg backtests, one-click automation at four brokers (optionomega.com, verified 2026-09-23). Days to Expiry keeps dedicated backtests for historical context but centers the book you actually hold: roll-adjusted cost basis after rolls, per-leg P&L, multi-broker sync, a weekly execution plan, and AI/MCP queries. If you want automation robots, Option Omega; if you want portfolio truth, Days to Expiry — you can use both.

How does pricing compare to Option Omega?

As of 2026-09-23, optionomega.com lists four tiers billed annually: Lite $24.99/mo (modeling), Essential $49.99/mo (backtesting), Plus $74.99/mo (backtesting + modeling), and Premium $249.99/mo (trading + backtesting + modeling), each with a 7-day trial. Days to Expiry Pro is $50/mo ($500/yr) from the live Stripe prices backing /pricing. Check vendor pages for current rates before deciding.

Can I still run backtests with Days to Expiry?

Yes. Dedicated wheel and options backtests are on Pro, showing historical assignment rates, premium collected, and (for the wheel) a buy-and-hold comparison for a fixed DTE and OTM% rule. The free screener surfaces model assignment probability by default, so you get probability context even before running a full historical test. What you won't get is trade automation — Days to Expiry does not place trades.

Does Option Omega track cost basis after rolls?

Not according to its public pages (verified 2026-09-23). Option Omega describes modeling, backtesting, and automation — fills, optimizations, and broker execution. Roll-adjusted cost basis and per-leg P&L on a live imported book are not stated as features. That tracking layer is exactly what Days to Expiry is built for.

Which brokers does Days to Expiry sync?

Interactive Brokers via Flex Query (first-class automated sync) and 32+ brokers via SnapTrade in a read-focused connection, with CSV import as a fallback. Positions, trades, rolls, and assignments feed the portfolio view automatically — the manual bookkeeping a backtester never sees.

Is there a free way to try Days to Expiry before switching?

Yes — start with the free screener and the demo portfolio (no credit card), then a 14-day free trial on paid plans. Run it alongside Option Omega for a week: backtest a strategy there, then watch how Days to Expiry tracks the live version of the same idea.
