Hi Amy,
You can retrieve the greeks of any options contract by using the standard API, i.e.
// In Initialize() var option = AddOption("GOOG"); // add the initial contract filter option.SetFilter(-2, +2, TimeSpan.Zero, TimeSpan.FromDays(180)); // set the pricing model for Greeks and volatility // find more pricing models https://www.quantconnect.com/lean/documentation/topic27704.html option.PriceModel = OptionPriceModels.CrankNicolsonFD(); // In another algorithm method // Given 'contract' is an OptionsContract, then you can access the greeks using these methods contract.Greeks.Delta contract.Greeks.Gamma contract.Greeks.Vega contract.Greeks.Rho contract.Greeks.ThetaAmy Giang
