What I learned building an options portfolio tracker for retail traders

2•optioneer•5h ago
I trade options actively (covered calls, CSPs, spreads), and over time my tracking setup became messy.

Between assignments, rolls, partial closes, and multi-leg strategies, it got surprisingly hard to answer simple questions like: - What’s my real ROI after rolls? - How much risk do I have right now? - Which strategies are actually working?

I tried spreadsheets and existing tools, but they either broke down for real trading workflows or felt overly complex.

So I started building my own tracker as a side project. It focuses on: - Clean tracking of multi-leg options strategies - Automatic P&L and Greeks at position and portfolio level - Simple discovery scans to surface new trade ideas

It’s still early and very much a work in progress, but it’s already helped me bring structure to how I trade.

Happy to hear feedback — especially from other options traders. Link: https://optioneer.io
