Strategy Overview This strategy systematically sells option premium on highly liquid US equities. The core objective is to generate consistent weekly income by selling short-dated options with a statistical edge. The strategy focuses primarily on: • weekly cash-secured puts • occasional covered calls The trades are selected using a quantitative screening process that evaluates multiple factors such as: • option premium • implied volatility • probability of expiring out-of-the-money • recent price momentum • technical trend • earnings risk Only stocks with high liquidity and tight bid-ask spreads are considered. ⸻ Risk Management Risk management is a core element of the strategy. Key principles include: • selling options with moderate delta exposure • avoiding earnings announcements • limiting position size relative to account size • focusing on diversified large-cap equities Positions are typically held until expiration, unless risk conditions change. If assigned, positions may be managed through covered call writing. ⸻ Trading Frequency Typical trading activity: • 1–3 trades per week • expiration usually within the same week The strategy aims to generate a steady stream of option premium rather than large directional bets. ⸻ Strategy Philosophy The approach is based on the observation that: Option premiums often contain a volatility risk premium. By systematically selling options with a statistical edge and disciplined risk management, the strategy seeks to capture this premium over time.
