Value Options Letter — Tools
Free calculators for self-directed options traders.
Each tool runs on live market data and the same fundamentals pipeline we use behind the paid letter. No account required.
Put-Selling Yield Calculator
Enter a ticker, strike, and expiration. We compute the annualized yield if the put expires worthless, your effective cost basis if assigned, and the downside cushion vs current spot. Pure math — no opinions.
Value + Volatility Setup Score
Type one ticker. We score it on two axes: is it cheap vs its own 5-year valuation history, and is the premium paying for the volatility we'd actually be exposed to? Single-ticker, not a screener.
How VOL evaluates a name
Plain-English walkthrough of the analytical framework behind the letter. The same lens that's encoded in the calculators above — applied to a hypothetical name end-to-end.
IV Rank + Options Snapshot Lookup
Quick read on any ticker: where IV sits in its 52-week range, ATM put and call yields at the next weekly/monthly/45-day expirations, earnings date, and put/call open interest.

What these tools aren’t
They’re not personalized advice. They don’t know your portfolio, your tax situation, or your risk tolerance. They compute the structural numbers behind a trade so you can decide for yourself.
What the paid letter adds is the analyst work on top — which companies we’d actually be comfortable owning at the assigned price, how we’re sizing each position, and our real trade log with closed-trade results.
