Hi Bruce,
I am not a guru of any kind, but I can answer your question. :-)
The only software product I am aware of that can do this is OptionVue. You
would need to purchase their BackTrader module along with the basic module,
and subscribe to their data feed, too. BackTrader can access historical
options + underlying data stored at half-hour intervals on the company's
servers, accessible through a simple internet connection. For more
information go to www.optionvue.com, or, specifically, to
www.optionvue.com/Modules.htm#BackTrader.
Disclaimer: I have no connections with OptionVue except as a satisfied
customer (well, they did bribe me with a coffee mug once).
Regards,
Michael Suesserott
