Why We Are Different?

We emphasize options education in a dedicated forum where the strategy is discussed in great details.

We place all trades in our own account and returns are based in real fills, not hypothetical performance.

We control risk by position sizing and would typically utilize only 80% of the portfolio.

Please note that we report returns on the whole account (not return on margin).
