Catalyst trading.
Defined Risk.
Options-based macro and catalyst trading with quantified risk.
The Origin
The Problem With Short Selling
- Unlimited downside risk
- Timing is always difficult — late entries compound losses
- Short squeezes create forced exits at the worst moments
- Borrowing costs erode returns over time
The Options Solution
- Maximum risk is known before entering any trade
- Asymmetric payoff — defined loss, uncapped upside
- Trade economic and earnings catalysts with precision
- Discovered through watching institutional options flow patterns
