Values use the most recent closing prices fetched by the daily job, not live quotes. Share counts are recorded against unadjusted prices, so if TQQQ ever splits the affected trades must be edited by hand or both P/L and the annual return will drift.

Quotes are delayed and this is a candidate list, not an execution instruction. Re-check every strike in your broker before trading.

Safe sleeve
Annual reset month
A cash-like sleeve was the weaker choice in testing.
Against the same 25% cap, cash returned 14.72% a year with a −57.5% worst
fall, where 7–10 year treasuries returned 17.23% with −46.4%. The site
will still work out your trades.

How this works
- What is checked
- How much the Nasdaq 100 has moved day to day over the last 60 sessions. The job runs every weekday after the close; the number here is always the latest one.
- When you act
- Only on the first trading day of the month, and only if the target percentage has moved since you last traded. In the 40-year test the number was unchanged in three months out of four — no trade is the normal answer, and drift is deliberately left alone until the annual reset.
- The annual reset
- In your chosen month both sleeves go back to target whether or not the number moved. Without it the TQQQ position drifts upward in long calm stretches — to 74% of the account in the test.

What these do
- Premium multiple (k)
- Target premium is
k × FCF yield ÷ 12. k=1 was the highest-Sharpe rule Goldman tested; higher k sells closer to the money for more premium and more assignment. - Capital & collateral
- Capital is what you actually post. Collateral % sets leverage:
50% is roughly 2×, and is the recommended starting point.
Notional sold is
capital ÷ collateral%. - Max spread
- Rejects strikes whose bid-ask exceeds this share of mid. At these strikes execution cost is the largest single drag on returns.
