Program Info
The Premium Alpha Managed Program (PAMP) strategy focuses on earning alpha by using options, option spreads, trend analysis, and hedging overlays. It emphasizes extracting value from options over time and mainly trades ES (e-mini SP) futures contract options. Positions are staggered over weeks for diversification and robustness, with older positions acting as hedges. Risk is managed through staggered position entry, hard stops, and proprietary hedge ratio software. The goal is to achieve superior risk-adjusted returns while being non-correlated to the S&P 500.
