First Order Greeks (v3) ​

StandardPro

REQUIRED

The v3 Theta Terminal must be running to access data.

  • Returns the data for all contracts that share the same provided symbol and expiration.
  • Calculated using the option and underlying midpoint price. If an interval size is specified (highly recommended), the option quote used in the calculation follows the same rules as the quote endpoint.
  • The underlying price represents whatever the last underlying price was at the timestamp field. You can read more about how Theta Data calculates greeks here.
  • Multi-day requests are limited to 1 month of data.
