Hi, Rick. We trade similar things.
I'm new to AmiBroker but I've verified that AmiBroker can automatically back
test option trading strategies by coding a couple. You can find the AmiBroker
code for them at the links below.
* Two legged options trading strategy, specifically selling straddles or
strangles

* Four legged options trading strategy, specifically selling iron
butterflies or iron condors
