Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for analyzing and searching financial instrument data respond to user defined searches using updated financial market data. Potential returns from different investment strategies can be viewed together so that the returns and risks can be compared and contrasted. The effect on various option strategies of a change in the price of the underlying stock can be analyzed. Potential investment opportunities relating to an existing investment position can be identified. Stock repair opportunities relating to a selected stock investment can be identified and implemented.
