Performance figures are past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Performance figures are presented net of fees charged to clients. Actual fees may vary depending on, among other things, the applicable fee schedule and portfolio size. SGI fees are available upon request and may also be found in Part II of its Form ADV. Performance includes the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Investing involves risks including the possible loss of principal and fluctuation in value.
Methodology
- Risk of options contracts is actively managed to ensure risk of being called/put is low.
- SGI’s options traders choose deep out-of-the-money strikes (0.001 ~ 0.010 delta) that mostly expire within 1-7 days to generate income.
- Delta risk can be controlled by dynamic hedging involving diagonals and iron condors.
- SGI’s current target: 5-8% above the risk-free rate (~4%) to outperform.
