Our Strategies
Clear, structured options trading strategies designed for everyday investors seeking disciplined, risk-managed approaches to the market.
We focus on practical, easy-to-understand strategies that help investors generate income, manage volatility, and protect their portfolios — without unnecessary complexity.
Yield Enhancement Strategies
Generate extra income from your existing portfolio using carefully constructed options strategies.
Our yield enhancement approach includes:
- Writing covered calls to generate premium income
- Using collars to reduce downside risk
- Selecting strike prices and expiries that balance risk and reward
These strategies are built to enhance returns, not replace your core investments. We prioritise defined-risk structures and consistency over speculation.
Volatility Trading
Volatility creates opportunity — whether markets rise, fall, or move sideways.
Our volatility strategies aim to benefit from changes in market volatility using both directional and non-directional approaches.
Directional
- Long call/put positions
- Debit spreads
- Defined-risk leverage
Non-Directional
- Straddles & strangles
- Iron condors
- Calendar spreads
We use professional volatility analysis to identify opportunities and manage risks such as time decay and volatility shocks.
Directional & Non-Directional Options
Directional Trading
When we have a view on market direction (up or down), we implement:
- Long calls & puts
- Vertical spreads
- Ratio spreads
These offer controlled-risk exposure with lower capital requirements than owning the underlying asset.
Non-Directional Trading
When markets are range-bound or uncertain, we use strategies designed to profit from:
- Volatility expansion
- Time decay
- Stable or sideways price action
These may include:
- Iron condors
- Butterflies
- Calendar spreads
- Straddles & strangles
Hedging & Risk Management
Options are one of the most powerful tools for managing risk. We help investors use options to protect portfolios while staying invested.
Portfolio Protection
- Protective puts
- Collar strategies
- Equity hedges
Tail-Risk Hedging
Protect against extreme market events using low-cost, out-of-the-money options.
Dynamic Adjustments
As markets move, positions are actively managed to maintain protection and optimise outcomes.
