Hi @Adya_Raj
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
I would like to clarify that SkewHunter is an Option Buying Algo and falls under the Very High Risk category. Like any option buying strategy, it can experience periods of drawdown depending on the prevailing market conditions. While such phases can be uncomfortable, they are a natural characteristic of this category of strategies and should be viewed in the context of their overall risk-reward profile rather than over a short time frame.
I would also like to assure you that we continuously monitor the live performance of all our Algos. Every strategy is tracked on an ongoing basis by our quantitative research and engineering teams, who regularly review execution behaviour, capacity, risk characteristics, and overall performance consistency. Any observation that requires attention is thoroughly evaluated before appropriate action is taken. This monitoring is a continuous process and forms an integral part of how we manage and maintain our Algo offerings at Stratzy.
At the same time, it’s important to remember that Algo trading does not assure only profits. Periods of gains and periods of drawdowns are both inherent to systematic trading, particularly in higher-risk strategies such as Option Buying Algos.
I have also explained when an Option Buying Algo is best deployed in one of our community posts. I would request you to go through it here: When Should You Deploy an Option Buying Algo?
I believe it will provide a useful perspective on how these Algos are intended to be used as part of a well-balanced portfolio.
