Investment Strategy
ACM uses a systematic approach to trading, in that it relies heavily on a program of selling or writing out-of-the-money options. ACM may also, from time to time; purchase options to reduce risk exposure. The implementation of the program each month depends on two proprietary formulas. They determine the strike prices and maturity periods of the initial option positions, which are written for each month’s expiration. Considerations are also given to technical and fundamental conditions in order to give the best risk/reward possible in ACM opinion. Option contracts are written at a sufficient distance out of the money to allow, in most cases, for the options to expire worthless. Returns are based on proforma adjustments to a proprietary account to reflect fees. Client accounts will be traded in like fashion.
