Author	Topic: identifying weekly options vs others (3 messages, Page 1 of 1)

"Non-standard" basically means weekly. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

I'm not aware of a way to exclude only weekly options without also excluding binary options. This is of course a moot point in case the specified underlying has no binary options. Note: as far as I know, weekly options are excluded by default only with IQFeed client 6.1 or newer, whereas binary options are excluded by default on older clients as well.
