Connect your Interactive Brokers account and get a prioritised list of exactly which cash-secured puts and covered calls to sell — strikes, expiries, and position sizes — generated from your live portfolio every week.
Running the wheel across 10+ positions means hours every Sunday: pulling up each ticker, checking deltas, comparing strikes, deciding what to roll, what to open, what to leave. Most wheel traders end up with a messy spreadsheet, missed rolls, and inconsistent strike selection. Days to Expiry connects directly to your IBKR portfolio and does the analysis for you. It surfaces every position that needs action this week — new CSPs to open, covered calls to initiate after assignment, contracts nearing expiry that should be rolled — with a concrete recommendation for each.
🔄 Real-Time IBKR Integration — Every open position, assignment, and expired contract reflected automatically
📋 Automated Trade Recommendations — Prioritised action list each week: new CSPs, covered call initiations, roll candidates
⚙️ Configurable Risk-Parameter Guardrails — Set target delta, DTE window, max OTM%, and minimum premium; only matching trades surface
🔔 Roll & Assignment Alerts — Monitors every contract against your exit rules and flags positions needing action before it's urgent
Link your Interactive Brokers account via the official API. Every open position, assignment, and expired contract syncs automatically — no CSV exports, no manual data entry.
Each week Days to Expiry generates a prioritised action list: which underlyings to open new CSPs on, which assigned stocks are ready for covered calls, and which contracts are approaching your roll threshold — each with strike, expiry, and expected premium.
Set your target delta, preferred DTE window (e.g. 30–45 days), max OTM percentage, and minimum premium threshold. The software uses these rules to filter every recommendation — you only see trades that fit your wheel parameters.
Days to Expiry monitors every open contract against your exit rules and surfaces roll candidates automatically. Covered-call opportunities after assignment appear immediately so you re-enter the wheel without delay.

How the live portfolio sync works
Free to start — see plan options
Days to Expiry is built specifically for IBKR. It connects via the IBKR Flex Query system to read your live portfolio and generate a weekly execution plan — no CSV exports or manual data entry needed. Most generic options tools don't integrate with IBKR at the position level.
Yes. Days to Expiry works with any optionable underlying in your IBKR account — individual stocks, ETFs, or a mix. You can configure different strike and expiry rules per underlying if your wheel parameters vary (e.g. tighter delta on index ETFs vs. individual names).
A spreadsheet tracks history; Days to Expiry generates forward-looking trade recommendations. Instead of calculating next week's strikes yourself, the software reads your live positions and tells you exactly what to do — with roll alerts, assignment tracking, and premium targets automatically applied. It replaces the weekly analysis work, not just the record-keeping.
