Hey guys, I've been looking for an API to get the option chain for futures for a few weeks now. I've tried many solutions, but some are missing the greeks, while others only provide data for stocks, other dosen't have Open Interest and so on.. If the data were real-time, that would be ideal, but a 10-15 minute delay would also be fine. I know that IBKR offers an API, but as far as I understand, it's only available for those who deposit $25k and CME is really really expensive Of course, I’d like to manipulate the data and perform some analysis using Python.

When I implement this using IBKR's IB Gateway, via TWS API 'placeOrder', it seemed to be a very costly operation. IBG's CPU use spikes to 100% if I run 3 of such orders.

Is there a more proper way to do this, or perhaps I should go to another broker? submitted by /u/heshiming [visit reddi ..read more
