This contains a file called IEOPTIONS.ZIP which is a collection of all historical options symbols, which have been traded at least once. If you enter any of those options symbols into a historical request, you can get interval data for them. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist
