Crescent Bay Capital
Overview
Crescent Bay Capital Management, Inc. is an alternative investments trading firm, specializing in managed futures and options strategies. Returns from their offered programs are non-correlated to the direction of the stock market; therefore, the strategies have the potential to be profitable in every stock market environment.
Premium Stock Index Program (PSIP) – The general strategy of the program is to sell “out-of-the-money” options (both puts and calls) on the S&P 500 stock index futures contract and collect the premium. Trades are usually made 30-45 days before expiration, but are rarely held to expiration. Proprietary algorithms are used to determine strike prices of options sold, resulting in a high probability for trades to achieve profit objectives. Be advised that option writing has unlimited risk of loss.
Balanced Volatility Program (BVP) – The objective of the BVP is to achieve substantial capital appreciation through the speculative trading of futures and options on futures. A secondary objective of the program is to offset volatility risks, which are inherent in short option or “premium selling” programs, while offering the benefits of an absolute return strategy. The BVP works well as a hedging tool when combined with a premium selling program such as the Premium Stock Index Program (PSIP) or as a standalone investment.
