Trading Description, Risk Strategy & Background
Alleman Capital Crude Hedge Program's investment objectives are to generate above-average risk-adjusted returns under rising and falling markets and to maintain a low correlation to the equities markets. Alleman Capital Management LLC intends to allocate capital to options on futures specific to the crude oil commodities market including bull and bear credit spreads.
The Advisor intends to use only 30% of its available margin, with the intent to leave the rest of its available margin to account for market fluctuations due to volatility. When necessary, contracts are exited early to maintain margin levels during times of extreme volatility.
Heather Alleman is the Founder and Portfolio Manager of Alleman Capital Management, LLC, where she oversees all investment decisions, portfolio management, and operational strategy. She has been a full-time, self-employed trader since August 2022 and formally registered as a Principal and Associated Person of Alleman Capital Management, LLC on February 15, 2024. She became an NFA Associate Member on February 27, 2024.
Ms. Alleman's path into alternative investments and securities began in 2018 while preparing for the Series 65 exam. Her deep analytical skills and operational expertise, combined with a strong background in math and science, enabled her to develop a passion for derivatives trading. She quickly focused on commodity futures, leveraging her Louisiana roots and firsthand exposure to the energy sector's economic impact. By March 2020, she was exclusively trading options on crude oil futures, setting the foundation for her transition into fund management.
Prior to launching Alleman Capital Management, Ms. Alleman held executive leadership roles at Unitech Training Academy, where she served as Chief Operations Officer from February 2021 to August 2022 and Vice President of Student Affairs from September 2009 to February 2021. As COO, she managed daily business operations for a multi-campus proprietary college system, overseeing strategic planning, financial management, and institutional growth initiatives. Her responsibilities included optimizing business practices, managing a multi-million-dollar budget, and ensuring alignment with the organization's long-term vision. In her role as Vice President of Student Affairs, she developed and implemented policies across enrollment, financial aid, academic affairs, and career services.
Ms. Alleman holds a Master's degree in Educational Administration in Higher Education and a Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of New Orleans, earned in 2002 and 1997, respectively. Today, she applies her leadership experience and deep market expertise to managing risk and generating returns in the crude oil derivatives market.
