How do I lookup the symbols for the week SPX options? (reference: http://www.cboe.com/products/weeklys-options/available-weeklys)
I see the docs here: http://www.iqfeed.net/dev/api/docs/OptionChainsviaTCPIP.cfm And they describe this command: CEO,[Symbol],[Puts/Calls],[Month Codes],[Near Months],[BinaryOptions],[Filter Type],[Filter Value One],[Filter Value Two],[RequestID]<CR><LF> Request an Index or Equity Option Chain from IQFeed. but the docs only refer to monthlies. Thanks! J |

The weekly items are included in those returns. The expiration date is included in the symbol. Here is an example of symbols for a July request on GOOG.
