option spreads? #98
Description
Very nice work!
Lately I've been dealing mostly with option spreads, eg. vertical bull put credit spreads, etc. Typically involving both a long and a short leg of different strike prices, or/and different strike dates, into a single order / position.
Might there be any support for that?
Here is an example of such an order in JSON:
# composed inside very hacky CLI I've written in Ruby and Python:
./rhPlaceOrder -m order_option_spread -p '(direction="debit",price=2.04,symbol="SPXL",quantity=1.0,spread=[{"expirationDate":"2020-07-17","strike":44.0,"optionType":"call","action":"sell","effect":"open"},{"expirationDate":"2020-07-17","strike":40.0,"optionType":"call","action":"buy","effect":"open"}],timeInForce="gfd")'
