New to options trading and want to test your strategy before risking real money?

In this beginner-friendly tutorial, we’ll show you how to use AlgoBuilder, a free no-code tool that lets you build, backtest, optimize, and paper trade options strategies without writing a single line of code

We’ll build and backtest popular strategies like a Short Straddle and Short Strangle, while covering option legs, expiry selection, strike selection, entry and exit conditions, stop loss, take profit, backtesting, performance analysis, and paper trading.

No coding experience or advanced options knowledge is required — this tutorial takes you through the process step by step.
