Description
Big Strangle King is an active stock and options strategy developed by Bram Schottey, an experienced investor with an extensive background in market analysis and options strategies. The strategy offers investors a professional and dynamic approach to the U.S. market without requiring them to monitor the market throughout the day.
The portfolio combines technical and fundamental analysis with active risk management and options strategies. Its objective is to respond to short-term opportunities and pursue above-average returns over the longer term. This is an objective and not a guarantee.
How does the strategy work?
The portfolio is actively managed on a daily basis. Bram selects stocks based on fundamental quality, growth potential, technical signals and current market developments. Technical analysis is used to identify potential entry and exit points.
Call and put options are used alongside stock positions. Strangle structures and other option combinations may be applied to respond to expected price movements, collect option premium or adjust a position’s risk profile. Positions may be opened, modified or closed quickly when market conditions change.
Market volatility and outlook
The U.S. market may react strongly to geopolitical developments, interest-rate decisions, macroeconomic data and company news. Achieving consistent results can be more difficult during periods of increased volatility.
Bram closely monitors these developments and adjusts the portfolio when technical or fundamental signals change. The strategy seeks opportunities in rising, falling and sideways-moving markets.
Results and market view
The portfolio seeks to benefit actively from market movements, trends and temporary opportunities, while the underlying quality of the selected stocks remains an important part of the selection process.
The objective is to outperform the broader market over the longer term while actively managing risk. Returns may nevertheless vary significantly from month to month, and interim losses are possible.
