  • ORATS offers enough to make me a customer for life... The videos and blog entries have been very helpful... The stock scanner templates (particularly the earnings scanner is very useful).

  • I'm loving the new functionality you've given ORATS, especially the screening functionality for spreads
    - Patrick
  • The dashboard is so intuitive, along with the ability of drilling into various segments, command simple requests, etc. It's so easy to decipher feedback and is especially user-friendly for a newbie user.
    - Tony M.
  • The stock scanner is the greatest scanner ever made
    - Aiman
  • There is a lot to the platform and it helps to watch someone who understands the nuances use it. The way the various sections of the platform integrate with one another is an elegant feature and the overall presentation of the data returned is very clean.

  • ORATS is fantastic platform! I have used several including ivolatility/Options omega, but nothing comes close to ORATS.
