Optimum Capital Strategies

Optimum Capital Strategies LLC provides fee-based investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), families, trusts, estates, corporations and charitable organizations. The firm offers personalized portfolio management across equities, equity options, ETFs and fixed income, plus retirement planning and securities buy‑back services for businesses.

The firm’s investment approach combines value investing with strategic option usage and a predominantly long‑term orientation, employing fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis across both model and actively managed accounts. OCS regularly uses equity options (including puts to initiate positions and covered calls on sales) and may employ margin, leverage, short sales and hedging — i.e., borrowing and derivatives in separately managed accounts — practices that are relatively uncommon among peers.

Accounts are generally managed on a discretionary basis and the firm uses block and basket trading to allocate executions equitably across clients while monitoring exposure and diversification. Distinctive features include its integration of option strategies into routine portfolio construction, an ETF portfolio tailored for tax‑sensitive financial plans, and the availability of securities buy‑back services to account holders without an additional fee.
