Frequently asked questions
Is there a free trial?
Yes — every new account starts with 14 days of full Pro: unlimited scans, the full S&P 500 scanner, unlimited watchlist and alerts. No credit card required. After 14 days you keep a free account (5 scans/day, 3 watchlist tickers, 3 alerts) unless you upgrade.
Do I need a credit card to try Pro?
No. The 14-day Pro trial needs no card and won't auto-charge. You only enter payment details if you decide to subscribe — and you can do that any time during or after the trial.
What's the Founding Member plan?
The first 150 subscribers can lock in $12/month forever, billed monthly with no annual commitment. When standard pricing rises to $19/month, founding members keep $12/month for as long as their subscription stays active. Once the 150 spots are gone, the offer closes.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from your account page at any time. During the free trial there's nothing to cancel — it simply ends. If you've subscribed, you keep Pro until the end of your current billing period, then switch back to the free tier.
What email alerts can I set?
Set an alert on any signal — Risk Score, IV Rank, Edge Score, IV%, or price — in either direction (above or below a threshold). We email you when the threshold is crossed; alerts are checked every 30 minutes, with at most one email per alert per day. Free accounts get up to 3 alerts; Pro is unlimited.
What does the expiry / risk-horizon selector do?
The risk score weighs catalysts that fall within your option expiry window. Change the horizon (1–52 weeks) and the score & Edge Score re-calculate instantly from already-fetched data — no new scan, no waiting, no extra quota used. Only the score changes with the horizon; the underlying news, earnings, legal and trial data stay the same.
How is the risk score calculated?
Each scan checks for active catalysts — earnings dates, legal proceedings, SEC filings, clinical trial results, FDA actions, and breaking news — then weights them against your chosen option expiry horizon. A score near 0 means few near-term catalysts; a score near 100 means multiple high-impact events overlap your expiry window.
What is Edge Score?
Edge Score = IV Rank minus Risk Score. A high positive Edge Score means options are expensive (high IV Rank) AND catalyst risk is low — the ideal combination for premium sellers. It surfaces the best selling opportunities across the S&P 500 at a glance, and powers the "Sell Premium" list on the Radar page.
What tools do I get?
Single-ticker risk scans, the full S&P 500 Market Scanner, Options Signals (IV Rank, edge, IV/HV, unusual volume), an Events Calendar (earnings, ex-dividend & clinical trials), a Risk Heat Map, and Trade Radar (curated premium-selling, earnings, ex-div and high-risk lists). Free users get a limited view of each; Pro unlocks the full data.
Which tickers are supported?
Any US-listed equity (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX), including ADRs like NVO or PBR. S&P 500 stocks are pre-cached every 30 minutes for near-instant results. Other tickers are fetched live on first scan (typically a few seconds) and then added to our regular update rotation. Non-US-listed foreign tickers may have limited data.
Where does the data come from?
Risk scores are built from public sources: news feeds, SEC EDGAR filings, ClinicalTrials.gov, CourtListener (legal cases), and FDA actions. IV%, Expected Move, and options flow (Greeks, skew, term structure) come from Polygon.io and Yahoo Finance options chains. Historical Volatility is calculated from daily price history.
What payment methods are accepted?
All major credit and debit cards via Stripe. Your payment details are handled by Stripe and never stored on our servers.
Is this financial advice?
No. TickerRisk is a research tool that aggregates public information. It does not provide investment, trading, legal, or financial advice. Always do your own due diligence before trading.
