US Future Options
Dataset by AlgoSeek
The US Future Options dataset by AlgoSeek provides Option data on US Future contracts, including prices, strikes, and expires. The data covers 16 Monthly Future contracts, starts in January 2012, and is delivered on a minute frequency. This dataset is created by monitoring the trading activity on the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, and COMEX markets.
This dataset depends on the US Futures dataset because the US Futures dataset contains data on the underlying Futures contracts. This dataset also depends on the US Futures Security Master because the US Futures Security Master dataset contains information to construct continuous Futures.
AlgoSeek is a leading historical intraday US market data provider offering the most comprehensive and detailed market data and analytics products in the financial industry covering equities, futures, options, cash forex, and cryptocurrencies. AlgoSeek data is built for quantitative trading and machine learning. For more information about AlgoSeek, visit algoseek.com.
The following snippet demonstrates how to request data from the US Future Options dataset:
future = self.add_future(Futures.Metals.GOLD, Resolution.MINUTE)
future.set_filter(0, 90)
self.add_future_option(future.symbol, lambda universe: universe.strikes(-5, +5))
var future = AddFuture(Futures.Metals.Gold, Resolution.Minute);
future.SetFilter(0, 90);
AddFutureOption(future.Symbol, universe => universe.Strikes(-5, +5));
The following table describes the dataset properties:
Property | Value |
---|---|
Start Date | January 2012 |
Asset Coverage | 16 Monthly Future Contracts. Standard expires only*. |
Data Density | Dense |
Resolution | Minute, Hourly, & Daily |
Timezone | New York |
Market Hours | Regular and Extended |
The US Future Options dataset enables you to accurately design Future Option strategies. Examples include the following strategies:
For more example algorithms, see Examples.
The US Future Options dataset provides TradeBar, QuoteBar, and OpenInterest objects.
TradeBar objects have the following attributes:
QuoteBar objects have the following attributes:
OpenInterest objects have the following attributes:
The following list shows the available (16) Futures Options:
To add US Future Options data to your algorithm, call the AddFutureOptionadd_future_option method.
class FutureOptionDataAlgorithm(QCAlgorithm):
def initialize(self) -> None:
self.set_start_date(2020, 1, 28)
self.set_end_date(2020, 6, 1)
self.set_cash(100000)
self.universe_settings.asynchronous = True
future = self.add_future(Futures.Metals.GOLD, Resolution.MINUTE)
future.set_filter(0, 90)
self.add_future_option(future.symbol, lambda universe: universe.strikes(-5, +5))
namespace QuantConnect
{
public class FutureOptionDataAlgorithm : QCAlgorithm
{
public override void Initialize()
{
SetStartDate(2020, 1, 28);
SetEndDate(2020, 6, 1);
SetCash(100000);
UniverseSettings.Asynchronous = true;
var future = AddFuture(Futures.Metals.Gold, Resolution.Minute);
future.SetFilter(0, 90);
AddFutureOption(future.Symbol, universe => universe.Strikes(-5, +5));
}
}
}
The Future resolution must be less than or equal to the Future Option resolution. For example, if you set the Future resolution to minute, then the Future Option resolution must be minute, hour, or daily.
For more information about creating Future Options subscriptions, see Requesting Data or Future Options Universes.
To get the current Future Options data, iterate through the OptionChainsoption_chains property of the current Slice. Slice objects deliver unique events to your algorithm as they happen, but the Slice may not contain data for your Future Options at every time step.
def on_data(self, slice: Slice) -> None:
for canonical_fop_symbol, chain in slice.option_chains.items():
for contract in chain:
self.log(f"{contract.symbol} price at {slice.time}: {contract.last_price}")
public override void OnData(Slice slice)
{
foreach (var kvp in slice.OptionChains)
{
var canonicalFOPSymbol = kvp.Key;
var chain = kvp.Value;
foreach (var contract in chain)
{
Log($"{contract.Symbol} price at {slice.Time}: {contract.LastPrice}");
}
}
}
You can also iterate through the FuturesChainsfutures_chains in the current Slice first.
def on_data(self, slice: Slice) -> None:
for continuous_future_symbol, futures_chain in slice.futures_chains.items():
# Select a Future Contract and create its canonical FOP Symbol
futures_contract = [contract for contract in futures_chain][0]
canonical_fop_symbol = Symbol.create_canonical_option(futures_contract.symbol)
option_chain = slice.option_chains.get(canonical_fop_symbol)
if option_chain:
for fop_contract in option_chain:
self.log(f"{fop_contract.symbol} price at {slice.time}: {fop_contract.last_price}")
public override void OnData(Slice slice)
{
foreach (var kvp in slice.FuturesChains)
{
var continuousContractSymbol = kvp.Key;
var futuresChain = kvp.Value;
// Select a Future Contract and create its canonical FOP Symbol
var futuresContract = futuresChain.First();
var canonicalFOPSymbol = QuantConnect.Symbol.CreateCanonicalOption(futuresContract.Symbol);
if (slice.OptionChains.TryGetValue(canonicalFOPSymbol, out var optionChain))
{
foreach (var fopContract in optionChain)
{
Log($"{fopContract.Symbol} price at {slice.Time}: {fopContract.LastPrice}");
}
}
}
}
For more information about accessing Future Options data, see Handling Data.
You can get historical US Future Options data in an algorithm and the Research Environment.
To get historical US Future Options data in an algorithm, call the Historyhistory method with the Future Option contract Symbol. If there is no data in the period you request, the history result is empty.
# DataFrame of trade and quote data
history_df = self.history(contract.symbol, 100, Resolution.MINUTE)
# DataFrame of open interest data
history_oi_df = self.history(OpenInterest, contract.symbol, 100, Resolution.MINUTE)
# TradeBar objects
history_trade_bars = self.history[TradeBar](contract.symbol, 100, Resolution.MINUTE)
# QuoteBar objects
history_quote_bars = self.history[QuoteBar](contract.symbol, 100, Resolution.MINUTE)
# OpenInterest objects
history_oi = self.history[OpenInterest](contract.symbol, 100, Resolution.MINUTE)
// TradeBar objects
var historyTradeBars = History(contract.Symbol, 100, Resolution.Minute);
// QuoteBar objects
var historyQuoteBars = History<QuoteBar>(contract.Symbol, 100, Resolution.Minute);
// OpenInterest objects
var historyOpenInterest = History<OpenInterest >(contract.Symbol, 100, Resolution.Minute);
For more information about historical data in algorithms, see History Requests.
To get historical US Future Options data in the Research Environment, call the Historyhistory or OptionHistoryoption_history method. The Historyhistory method returns the price, volume, and open interest history for some given Future Option contract(s). The OptionHistoryoption_history method returns the price and volume history for the contracts that pass your daily universe filter.
qb = QuantBook()
future = qb.add_future(Futures.Indices.SP_500_E_MINI)
start_date = datetime(2024, 1, 2)
future_contract_symbol = sorted(
qb.future_chain_provider.get_future_contract_list(future.symbol, start_date),
key=lambda s: s.id.date
)[0]
history = qb.option_history(
future_contract_symbol, start_date, future_contract_symbol.id.date, Resolution.HOUR
)
history_df = history.data_frame
expiries = history.get_expiry_dates()
strikes = history.get_strikes()
var qb = new QuantBook();
var future = qb.AddFuture(Futures.Indices.SP500EMini);
var startDate = new DateTime(2024, 1, 2);
var futureContractSymbol = qb.FutureChainProvider.GetFutureContractList(future.Symbol, startDate)
.OrderBy(x => x.ID.Date)
.First();
var history = qb.OptionHistory(
futureContractSymbol, startDate, futureContractSymbol.ID.Date, Resolution.Hour
);
var contracts = history
.SelectMany(x => x.OptionChains.SelectMany(y => y.Value.Contracts.Keys))
.Distinct().ToList();
var expiries = contracts.Select(x => x.ID.Date).Distinct().ToList();
var strikes = contracts.Select(x => x.ID.StrikePrice).Distinct().ToList();
To get historical data for arbitrary US Equity Option contracts instead of just the that pass your universe filter, call the Historyhistory method like you would in an algorithm, but on the QuantBook object. For more information about historical data in the Research Environment, see Key Concepts.
The US Future Options dataset provides TradeBar, QuoteBar, and OpenInterest objects.
TradeBar objects have the following attributes:
QuoteBar objects have the following attributes:
OpenInterest objects have the following attributes:
