Quants or traders here?

Working on a fintech platform that simplifies derivatives(options, for now) research/analysis for retail investors. I'd love to get some feedback from pro quants/traders on what I'm missing or is a must-have. Please comment or DM me if you'd be willing to help!

Yeah I’m getting back into Algo trading. I’m not sure what that has to do with the retail options platform though

I love working for free.

I don't want you to work for free. Just wanted a bouncing board as all of my network is in Tech, not Finance. It's fine if you don't have the time, I get it. Honestly, I think overall the Reddit trading community (r/options, specifically the pro traders on there) has been more generous with their time than anyone here so my expectations are quite low 🙂

Had to leave here a witty comment. That's how I internet.

There's plenty of quants in /r/wallstreetbets who will help you out

ignorant retail gambler != disability of social skills (that aside, I agree the community is not very sane)

Vol surface visualization is what I'd like to see in a retail platform.

Great, thanks for the feedback! I've had a few other traders mention vol smile charts too!

Oh, bid ask spread is important too. Less liquid options are not as easy to use for getting more leverage.
