NEW The morning digest no longer needs an account. Stay signed out and your phone can still get the 9am pick, drawn from the wider market instead of a watchlist. Turn it on under Settings, in the new Daily picks notification row. That is the honest version of it. A signed-out session keeps your settings on the device and uploads nothing, so there is no watchlist on our side to pick from. Nothing about that changed here, and nothing about it is going to. FIXED The app used to ask permission to send you notifications the second it opened, before you had read a single screen. It doesn't any more. You decide when, and Settings is where you do it. Signing out now stops the notifications. It used to leave the phone attached to the account you just left, so it kept getting that account's picks every morning. The device is dropped the moment you sign out. ALSO Bug fixes and performance improvements.

No, OptionsKing does not connect to your broker. You will need to place all trades yourself after analyzing them within the app. This ensures your brokerage credentials remain private.
Each candidate strike gets a deterministic score from 0 to 100, blended with the return on capital. This score helps you understand the quality of a potential trade, even in a thin market.
Yes, OptionsKing offers a paper trading feature with a virtual balance. You can run the entire trading loop, including placing, managing, and booking results, without any real money at stake.
No, OptionsKing does not contain advertisements. The app is free to use without any ad interruptions.
OptionsKing scans for premium-selling trades including covered calls, cash-secured puts, the wheel strategy, and defined-risk structures like verticals, iron condors, iron butterflies, and broken-wing spreads.
OptionsKing will refuse to record a trade with a confirmed earnings date inside the expiry window, regardless of its score. This is a hard stop to mitigate risk.
