Option greeks returning as null #104

Closed liamtsang closed 4 years ago

liamtsang commented 4 years ago

When I call find_options_for_list_of_stocks_by_expiration_date() for qqq I've found that usually about 1-3% of the options are missing (in my case) a gamma value. I understand that this is probably an issue with robinhood and not your code, but is there any workaround you've found for this?

jd-bartlett96 commented 4 years ago

Have you checked the greeks reported for those options on the Robinhood website/app? There are many low-volume options for which Robinhood does not have any greeks, so no "workaround" is going to produce values for those (other than finding another source or calculating them yourself)

Since there has been no update to this issue, I will assume that @jd-bartlett96 is correct. closing the issue.
