Summary
The program is an option writing program. Due to unusually favorable market conditions during 2009 performance has been well above target. It should not be expected that this level of return is sustainable. All 2009 results have been audited and verified, for details see www.ckplomax.com

Investments
After careful evaluation of fundamentals, indicators and chart analyses markets are selected. In each market, strike prices and number of contracts are selected and short-term options are written as outrights in trending markets or as strangles in non-trending markets.
A trading account with the described option trading strategy can be co-margined with an existing futures trading account managed by a different CTA.

Risk Management
Tight risk management is applied by daily calculating portfolio risk and setting tight soft or hard stops (2.5% of NAV per position), continuous market observation, evaluation of fundamentals, charts and indicators.
