Market Fundamentals
Our unique approach begins with rigorous fundamental analysis of commodity markets, allowing us to identify strike prices that align with market realities and minimize the likelihood of significant price movement against positions.
Time Decay Advantage
Time is on our side. By selling deep out-of-the-money options, we utilize time decay in an attempt to target consistent premium income while maintaining a disciplined approach to risk. Of course, there can be no guarantee that this attempt will be successful. There is a risk of loss in all futures and options trading.
Risk Management
Effective risk management is central to our portfolios. We attempt to limit exposure through disciplined position sizing, margin management, and proactive adjustments to mitigate potential losses. Of course, there can be no guarantee that this attempt will be successful.
Diversification
By selling options across a basket of uncorrelated commodities, such as crude oil, natural gas, soybeans, and gold, we create portfolios designed to reduce risk while capitalizing on diverse market opportunities. Futures trading involves the substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Long-Term Strategy
Our options-selling strategy is not about quick wins. We are targeting steady, disciplined income generation. By aligning our trades with long-term fundamentals, we attempt to ensure that each position supports a cohesive portfolio strategy. Futures trading involves the substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Portfolio Management
We employ a structured approach to options trading, leveraging extensive market analysis and proprietary research. Our disciplined framework prioritizes identifying opportunities in uncorrelated commodity markets, creating a portfolio designed to complement traditional asset classes. Futures trading involves the substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

MANAGEMENT
Why Invest with Alternative Options?
Diversification
An investment in commodities option selling gives you an account that is largely uncorrelated to any other kind of investment that you may have in your portfolio.
Transparent Communication
Stay informed with regular updates, performance reviews, and a direct line to your dedicated advisor.
Tax Advantages
The 60/40 rule in commodity futures trading offers a significant tax benefit. Under this rule, 60% of gains are treated as long-term capital gains and taxed at a lower rate, while the remaining 40% are taxed as short-term gains.
