I pressed the wrong key somewhere so I'll ask my question in this reply section.
I'd like to view options chain data quickly after selecting the equity, but all the data does not seem to initially display.
I'm using Windows 7, and have selected all strikes, all expirations, listed by calendar, and calls and puts in the options chain display. Ally Invest is the data source.
Here's my process:
I right-click on the equity symbol in the portfolio window, select the option chain for the symbol, and the options chain windows displays. It looks like only a minimal amount of data is in the rows and columns. I click on START on the options chain display and Reload Chain. I wait. No change in the option chain data. I go to the portfolio window and click on STOP and click on START. Then, the expected data displays in the option chain window.
I've noticed this during the day, on weeknights, and on the weekend.
I must have a setting wrong somewhere, but I cannot find it. Or, I just don't know the correct process to use to view the data almost immediately.
Will someone provide me the correct steps to view the options chain data quickly?
Regards
