About David A. Stasko
I am a strong, self-motivated and competitive financial professional with an in-depth knowledge of the cash, forward, futures and option markets of several financial markets. These include the foreign exchange, stock, bond, and energy markets along with numerous other commodities. I have a successful history of managing multi-billion exposures within prescribed rules, regulations, and limits. Strong quantitative and modeling skills coincide with years of practical trading experience and maturity. In addition, a responsible risk and money management philosophy is included which entails managing option portfolios through the use of option Greeks, stress tests, scenario analysis and VaR. Management skills include the ability to supervise and develop younger personnel, as well as, to develop, negotiate, and maintain institutional and banking relationships. A special history of administering to the needs and requirements of start-up ventures. Working on my latest venture Lone Wolf Asymmetric - Lone Wolf Asymmetric is an investment manager that takes an unconventional approach to managing money. It challenges and replaces outdated investment theories and concepts on trading, diversification, leverage and risk with new fresh risk management ideas. We take derivatives (options specifically) and work them into the investment process to form asymmetrical returns. "Asymmetrical Returns" means creating strategies that have a limited downside to losses while creating unlimited upside to gains. Our options strategies are optimized to reflect the current market environment for macro-economics, volatility and other technical considerations. Meanwhile, potential max. losses are limited to the premium that we pay. And isn't that what everyone expects from a hedge fund limited losses and unlimited gains? lonewolfasymmetric@gmail.com
