The beginning of 2026 has already brought significant geopolitical developments that are influencing market behavior. Through changing conditions, we continue to release updates every quarter, with a focus on improving the tools you rely on. In this version, we’ve focused on improving how you analyze trades, use the platform day-to-day, and access Option Samurai wherever you are. This release is centered on better control, smoother usability, and greater accessibility across devices.
Here’s what we included in this Q1 update:
Advanced trade chart controls for deeper scenario analysis
Resizable table columns across the platform
Major mobile experience improvements
Ongoing blog rebuild with new widgets and structure
General improvements and bug fixes
Advanced Trade Chart Controls
We’ve added more control to the trade chart so you can better understand how a position behaves under different conditions.
You can now explore the profit-and-loss curve across different price levels, implied volatility scenarios, and days-to-expiration assumptions. This gives you a clearer view of how trades evolve over time and helps you evaluate risk and potential outcomes more effectively.
Resizable Table Columns
You can now resize table columns on the screener. This quality-of-life improvement was highly requested by heavy users who work with large tables and many data points.
Improved Mobile Experience
All of Option Samurai’s advanced and unique features are available on mobile, and in this release, we’ve significantly improved the experience.
Navigation is smoother, layouts are more readable, and daily use on mobile is now much better, whether you’re checking scans, reviewing trades, or analyzing opportunities on the go.
Improved Blog and Education Hub
We’ve started rebuilding the blog to make it a more structured and useful learning resource. You will slowly see more improvements as time progresses, and the blog will become a better free learning hub.
In this version, we’ve included new widgets, improved labeling, and clearer content organization. The goal is to make it easier to find relevant research, strategies, and educational materials as we continue to expand this section.
Free Options Cheat Sheet
We created a free options cheat sheet - a quick-reference PDF covering the most important strategies, Greeks, and market conditions every options trader should know.
It includes visual breakdowns of 15 strategies, from long calls and covered calls to iron condors and bear call spreads, along with P&L explanations, breakeven formulas, and guidance on when to use each setup.
