ABOUT CYPRESS TRADING

Precision in Markets

Cypress Trading serves as the proprietary trading desk for a private family office, delivering high-probability trade execution with unwavering precision. Our expertise spans equities, options, futures, and fixed income/currencies, underpinned by a blend of tactical agility and long-term vision. We balance a high-beta, tech-driven long portfolio with short-term market movements, navigating financial landscapes with adaptability and insight.

Our Approach

Our edge emerges from a disciplined fusion of sophisticated trading strategies, quantitative models, and macroeconomic analysis. We tactically hedge the long book ahead of anticipated volatility, sell calls into periods of elevated skew, and capitalize on short-term opportunities using 0DTE (Options with Zero Days to Expiration) strategies. By tracking key market cycles, central bank policies, and geopolitical risks, we identify inefficiencies and optimize returns with strategic positioning and risk management.

Our Purpose

To steward the financial objectives of our family office with integrity, expertise, and unwavering commitment to excellence.
