Start tab
The OptionsEQ app has 5 tabs.
In the first “Type” you select the option type and the method of calculation. The options are limited in the basic version but expand for the upgraded version.
In the second “Values” you select, using the iPhone picker interface, the critical option valuation parameters and then run the valuation.
In the third tab “Results” fuller results are presented including all the “greeks”.
The fourth “Settings” tab allows you to customize the pickers in “Values” so that you can switch between many options types without the overhead of retyping all your parameters.
This is possible because in the fifth “Scenarios” tab you can save and recall your own scenarios – Including the relevant picker settings. This allow you to switch between an option on an index with values in the thousands (such as the Dow Jones or the FTSE) to currency options with values in the pennies with just a single click.
