How It Works

From signal to trade, step by step.

How the AcuBooth covered call overlay actually runs, from the engine's decision process to what happens when you enroll a client. For the individual trade level logic with real thresholds and formulas, see Trade Scenarios.

The process

Three steps, running continuously

01

Continuous monitoring

The engine scans the options market throughout every trading session, not on a weekly or monthly schedule. Intraday premium windows a manual process would miss are captured in real time.

02

Deterministic execution

Pre defined rules govern screening, strike selection, roll timing, and order management. The same logic applies regardless of market volatility or day of week, no AI or machine learning involved.

03

Full auditability

Every trade is logged and traceable to the specific rule that fired it, giving the advisor of record and any compliance reviewer a complete record on demand.

Who does what

You remain the advisor of record

AcuBooth operates on a separate sleeve, reporting into your existing custodian infrastructure. You keep the relationship and full discretion over the core portfolio.

Party
Advisor
Responsibility

Determines client suitability, selects eligible positions and sleeve parameters, approves the strategy mandate, and maintains fiduciary or suitability obligations to the client.

Party
Client
Responsibility

Signs the overlay agreement and custodian authorization, obtains options Tier 1 authorization, and understands risks including assignment, capped upside, and tax consequences.

Party
AcuBooth
Responsibility

Applies pre defined rules to screen, select, and execute covered call orders within advisor approved sleeve parameters. Reports activity to the advisor and custodian. Does not provide individualized investment advice.

Party
Custodian
Responsibility

Holds client assets, executes and confirms orders, and provides account statements and 1099 reporting. Custodian fees are separate from AcuBooth fees.

Getting started

A deliberate rollout, not a flip of a switch

RIAs run AcuBooth on their own account first, before any client is enrolled.

DAY 1
Sign up on your own account.

Takes under ten minutes. The overlay goes live on your account first, not a client's.

DAY 45
Performance review and client analysis.

You decide whether the results support recommending this to specific clients.

DAY 75
Begin enrolling clients.

Onboarding for each client account takes the same signup flow you completed on day one.

See For Advisors for the complete onboarding timeline and position level controls.
