Disciplined, Repeatable Trading Strategies

Strategies

SPX Weekly Condor Ladder

The SPX Weekly Condor Ladder is a structured, daily-entry strategy that opens one 7-DTE iron condor each morning. Each rung is managed independently using a 20-delta risk threshold and a 50% profit target. By staggering entries across the week, the ladder smooths P/L swings, increases sample size, and avoids overexposure to any single day’s market movement.

ETF Ladders

The ETF Ladder approach spreads risk across multiple uncorrelated underlyings by selling short-duration puts each day in a rotating sequence. Each position uses a simple 14-DTE, 20-delta framework with minimal management—roll only if price approaches the strike. The result is a steady, low-maintenance income stream that avoids concentration in any single ETF.

Dividend Wheels

The Dividend Wheel focuses on accumulating shares of reliable, high-payout companies by selling weekly naked puts just before the ex-dividend date. If assigned, shares are held briefly to capture the dividend, then exited using aggressive covered calls. This creates a repeatable cycle of option premium plus dividend income with minimal holding time.
