DTN_Gary_Stephen -DTN Guru- Posts: 394 Joined: Jul 3, 2019	Posted: Nov 19, 2021 05:05 PM Msg. 2 of 6 You can go to ftp:\\www.dtniq.com and go to the beta folder. 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
