What you'll learn

  • Build an options screener for cash-secured puts and covered calls with Claude Code, requiring no watchlist or subscription
  • Learn how a two-stage scan funnel reduces scanning time from 60 minutes to 3 minutes by efficiently filtering contracts
  • Understand how to correctly calculate probability of expiring worthless instead of using delta as a substitute
  • Discover how to automatically assemble scan universes for S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, Russell 1000, and live NSE F&O eligible stocks

Frequently asked questions

What are the two strategies this screener covers?
Cash-secured puts and covered calls, which together form the wheel strategy. The screener scans both options and ranks them by premium, downside cushion, and probability of expiring worthless.
Which markets and stocks does this screener support?
For the US: S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, and Russell 1000. For India: the live NSE F&O eligible stock list. The screener automatically assembles these universes without manual input.
What are the costs to build and use this screener?
The data, method, and prompt are free. However, Claude Code requires a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise), not the free Claude.ai tier.
Why is a two-stage scan funnel better than a standard screener?
A two-stage funnel filters contracts efficiently, allowing full market scans in 3 minutes instead of 60 minutes, while incorporating liquidity gates and capital-at-risk parameters.

Description from the channel

I Built a Pro Options Trading Screener With Claude Code | NSE + S&P500 for India & USA Markets Claude Code built a covered call and cash-secured put screener that scans the entire market — no watchlist, no subscription, and no ticker box.** Free options screener for US stocks and NSE F&O built in one prompt with Claude Code, React, Tailwind and yfinance. Cash-secured puts and covered calls are the two halves of the wheel strategy, so it screens both. It ranks every contract by premium, downside cushion and the odds it expires worthless. Full walkthrough of the two-stage scan funnel, the greeks maths, and the one feature I deliberately refused to build. Because cash-secured puts and covered calls run back to back are the wheel strategy, one tool covers the whole rotation. In this build I show you how to make Claude Code assemble its own scan universe (S&P 500 / Nasdaq-100 / Russell 1000 for the US, the live NSE F&O eligible list for India), why a two-stage funnel is the difference between a 3-minute scan and a 60-minute one, and how to compute probability of expiring worthless correctly instead of substituting delta for it. We also cover the liquidity gate, capital-at-risk for cash-secured puts, and the compliance guardrails that keep a screener a research tool rather than an advice product. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS [00:00] - The screener that never asks which stocks to scan [02:09] - Two things you won't get from Normal AI Video [02:49] - How to download and install Claude Desktop [03:49] - Prompt Walkthrough [09:47] - Finished Options Screener Walkthrough - US [13:06] - Finished Options Screener Walkthrough - India 📑Get Project Files on Skool Community: https://www.skool.com/the-ai-university-9677/about 📑Free prompts + build guides: https://theaiuniversity.online 💡 ONE HONEST COST NOTE: the data, the method and the prompt are free. Claude Code itself requires a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise) — the free Claude.ai tier does not include Claude Code. That's the one thing you pay for here, and I'd rather say it up front. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: The content in this video is for educational and entertainment purposes only. I am not a financial advisor.
