Important Disclaimer
OptX is for educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this site is financial, investment, trading, tax, or legal advice. Options trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using OptX (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

You should consult a licensed financial advisor before making any investment decisions.
3. Market Data
Market data is provided by third parties (currently Alpaca Markets) and may be delayed by up to 15 minutes on our free tier. Data may also be incomplete, inaccurate, or unavailable. OptX makes no warranty regarding data accuracy and is not liable for losses arising from reliance on displayed data.
