This Python script connects to the Interactive Brokers Trader Workstation (TWS) API to fetch option contract details for a specific ticker symbol and expiration date, and then saves the data to a CSV file.

• Retrieve option contract details (call and put) for a specified ticker symbol and expiration date
• Save the fetched data to a CSV file

• Python 3.6 or higher
• Interactive Brokers account and TWS software installed
• TWS API enabled with proper IP and port settings
• ibapi package installed (use pip install ibapi to install)

1. Update the script with the desired ticker symbol and expiration date in the main() function:

contract.symbol = "AMZN" contract.lastTradeDateOrContractMonth = "20240119"

2. Ensure that the TWS software is running and the API is enabled with the correct IP and port settings.

3. Run the script:

python fetch_option_data.py

4. The option contract details will be saved in a CSV file named options_data.csv.
