Dear Investor,
Welcome to the official website of Goodnight Capital Management, Inc (GCM). At GCM, we aim to deliver trading results based on calculated odds of statistical probability or improbability on all of our trades.
As part of our trading philosophy, our goal is to try to potentially provide the highest risk adjusted rate of return by carefully selecting the trades that we believe will result in a net positive yield on investment without risking too much of an accounts total cash. Our deployment of risk management coupled with prudent oversight on a daily basis will give direction of when to step in and out of the market. With strict trading rules in place to address irregular and extreme market conditions, we believe our clients may benefit from reduced equity draw downs and volatility in the overall portfolio.
We consider our success not only in terms of performance, but the retention of our broker network and client base in the long run. We believe in attempting to provide consistent returns and a high comfort level is more important to GCM and our clients, rather than offering returns that would result in large swings in equity.
Our trading methodology consists of selling options on the S&P 500 Futures Index (SP) as a preferred way of collecting option premium. Rather than choosing market direction, we use proprietary statistical research which aims at identifying ranges that the SP will trade within 30 to 45 days. We exercise a great deal of patience while waiting for market volatility to increase, which enables us to collect higher premiums.
Please examine our most recent Disclosure Document, and we encourage you to compare us against the stock indexes benchmarks and other money managers. In our opinion, we believe this strategy of selling deep out of the money options is a potentially viable way to achieve returns, especially in a volatile market. We welcome all your questions and inquiries.
Please bear in mind that the risk of loss in selling options is unlimited and is not suitable for everyone. Investors should be aware that past performance is not indicative of future results.
Best Regards,
Timothy F. Goodnight II
President |
