  • Trading Strategy: Warrington Asset Management's Tactical trading program builds on the firm's nineteen year history of successful money management. Utilizing a fundamental, discretionary trading strategy based solely on S&P 500 futures options, we seek to produce consistent, non-volatile, superior returns that are uncorrelated to stocks, bonds, and other CTAs. The short-term trading strategy sells options, usually 1-2 weeks before expiration, which are deep out-of-the-money to capture small, consistent profits, with disciplined risk management to protect against adverse market moves. The option trades are spread across multiple serial, quarterly, end-of-month and weekly expirations, providing additional diversification.
