Every variant in the catalog, recomputed weekly on second-level data.
Why not just backtest it yourself?
You could. Here’s what you’d be up against.
Coverage you can’t hand-build
On your own you can test a handful of variants. We backtest day and night to keep the catalog current — 200,000+ strategies, the whole grid re-scored every week. Coverage no single trader can reproduce by hand.
Analytics you’d have to build yourself
A backtest gives you a P/L curve. Judging a portfolio takes more: drawdown against your buying power, margin load, equity curve versus SPX, day-of-week and entry-time behaviour — computed the same way for every strategy, so the comparison actually means something.
One backtest tells you little
The edge isn’t one good backtest — it’s how strategies combine. We surface strategies that are genuinely uncorrelated, so they offset each other instead of all losing on the same day. Diversification is the closest thing to a free lunch in this market — but only if the correlation is real, and that’s a measurement, not a guess.
Browse. Build. Stress-test. Compare. Export.
We ran the backtests. You run the portfolio.
Start by choosing the backtest period you want to evaluate over. Then filter 200,000+ variants — Multiple Entry Iron Condors (MEIC), METF, ratio spreads and more — by premium, spread width and stop loss, set thresholds like max drawdown, and pick the strategies to add to your portfolio.
Automate it where you already trade.
The engine doesn't place trades — you export your portfolio and run it on the platform you already use.
Export your portfolio as OptionsApp-compatible import files, then automate through your own broker connection.

Run your portfolio on Option Omega automation. You can also import your own Option Omega backtests into the engine.

Your account, your broker, your decision.
Who it's for.
Built for you if:
- You’ve sold option premium before — credit spreads and iron condors are familiar ground, not new concepts
- You have $25k+ in buying power as a minimum — $100k+ is where the math really starts working for you
- You want strategies specified precisely enough to measure — entry time, width, stop loss and premium pinned down, across MEIC, METF, ratio spreads and more
- You'd rather spend minutes than hours each week optimizing and updating your portfolio
- You'd rather read a distribution than a guru thread
Not for you if:
- You're still learning what an iron condor is
- You want signals, alerts, or someone to tell you what to trade
- You expect promised returns — we publish statistics, not promises
What other traders say.
“Your portfolio did good in the backtest — ok — but will it survive the Monte Carlo sim? How's the correlation? Which strategy is a gem and which can go? Makes a hell of a difference.”
“A fantastic database that provides a high-quality, backtest-driven foundation for selecting options strategies.”
“A knowledgeable and experienced guide — his optimization efforts for data-driven strategy selection are truly groundbreaking.”

Built by a trader who couldn't stop backtesting.
I'm Thomas — engineer, options trader, and the person who answers when you ask a question. Not a marketing team. I built the engine because I refused to trade strategies I couldn't measure. Every number in the catalog comes from the same pipeline I use for my own research. Math beats emotions — that's the whole philosophy.

Questions
How are the trades actually automated?
The engine never places trades. You export the portfolio you want to run and execute it on an automation platform you already use: OptionsApp (which automates via Interactive Brokers, CapTrader and other IBKR-based brokers), Option Omega (Charles Schwab, tastytrade, Tradier), TradeSteward, or Trade Automation Toolbox. Your account, your broker, your decision — we are where the export comes from, not where the order goes.
What exactly is in the strategy database?
200,000+ backtested strategy variants on SPX 0DTE: Multiple Entry Iron Condors (MEIC), METF trend-following, ratio spreads and more. Every variant is scored the same way on the same data, which is the point — it makes a comparison between any two of them mean something. Think of it as options backtesting done once, centrally, at a scale no single trader can run alone.
How current is the data?
We backtest day and night to keep the catalog current, and the whole grid is re-scored every week on second-level data. You are never choosing from a snapshot someone took months ago.
Do I need to know MEIC or METF already?
It helps, honestly. This is built for traders who already sell option premium — if credit spreads and iron condors are familiar ground, you will be at home. It is an analytics workbench, not a first options course: we do not teach the strategies from scratch.
What account size does this make sense for?
$25k in buying power is the sensible minimum. To really be ahead of the game and let the math work out, though, $100k+ is what we would recommend — that is where spreading capital across several uncorrelated strategies becomes practical rather than theoretical.
Can I bring my own strategies or backtests?
Yes. Import your own strategies and backtests, analyze them with the same KPI engine that scores the catalog, and compare them side by side against it. Same scoring, same charts, no special-casing.
Why is a payment method required for the free trial?
Honestly: to keep the community clean. A card on file filters out drive-by signups and scammers, so the private Discord stays a room of committed traders. You are not charged during the 14 days — cancel before the trial ends and you pay nothing. And the Discord access you gain is yours for life, even if you cancel.
Is this financial advice?
No. Cashflow Engine is analytics software. We publish statistics — backtest results, distributions, correlations — and you make every decision about what to trade. We do not give recommendations and we do not promise returns.
