You can define the filter with a Linq expression:
var option = AddOption("GOOG"); option.SetFilter(universe => universe.IncludeWeeklys().Strikes(-2, +2) .Expiration(TimeSpan.Zero, TimeSpan.FromDays(10))); // For weeklys only, change IncludeWeeklys() for WeeklysOnly()Valery T
I am confused. Will that produce monthly contracts only?
Alexandre Catarino
Valery T, sorry. I misundestood your question.
By default we only get monthy contracts. So you don't need to do anything fancy, just use the normal SetFilter:
option.SetFilter(-1, +1, TimeSpan.Zero, TimeSpan.FromDays(60));Valery T
