What is the ADAPT Intraday Metric?

Adapt Intraday SPX Options Trading Strategy

ADAPT (Intraday) is an options strategy that focuses on rapid options decay and volatility shifts in various SPX options’ expirations.

The massive forces in the options market for various structures and strategies create major profit potential.

We capture that profit with our proprietary environmental algorithms and professional-level risk management.

  • ADAPT Intraday Options’ metric is a powerful trading tool that's designed to help you stay ahead of the curve in ever-changing market conditions.

  • With its Intraday algorithm, the ADAPT Intraday Options System identifies the best options trading strategies for the current market environment, so you can make more informed decisions and maximize your profits.

  • ADAPT Intraday is a powerful trading tool that utilizes machine learning and artificial intelligence to identify profitable trading opportunities.

  • It uses historical data and real-time market analysis to make predictions and provide recommendations based on your individual trading style and preferences.

What is the Environmental Concept?

We wouldn’t wear shorts in Antarctica and we wouldn’t wear a jacket on a hot beach.

We also don’t enter the same trade for all days in the market. Every day in the market brings different weather.

Our ADAPT Intraday trading system uses our proprietary environmental algorithms to determine the optimal trade with maximum efficacy for the current market conditions.

Every day has the potential to change the expirations, profit targets, loss limits, and strikes. ADAPT (Intraday) is truly the trade system that changes with the market.

Why SPX Calendar Spreads?

Through our extensive backtesting and live trading experience, we discovered the secret of balancing all aspects of a trade. Risk, Volatility, Expiration exposure, and more.

The more we balanced the more we realized calendars have significant advantages over traditional vertical-based strategies in various market conditions.

Consistency is the key to long-term success in options trading. Using calendars that have high decay, balanced greeks, and are properly risk-managed is our way of achieving consistency across all market environments.

A System Designed With Built-In
Risk Management

The largest gap between retail and professional trading is proper risk management.

It's complex, and it’s hard to understand why it’s so important and because of that retail traders don’t do it, or do it wrong.

We let our historical trade data of over 10,000 data points determine our risk. This creates our proprietary allocation model.

Our risk model simplifies all those complex risk calculations into a simple number. That number is the optimal trade size specific for that day and the current market environment to grow an account at the maximum rate.
