- Balanced Exposure: Zero net directional bias via opposing positions and dynamic hedging, enabling low-risk harvesting of time decay (theta).
- Risk Control: Advanced automation prevents overexposure and runaway losses through controlled trade layering and size.
- Emotional Discipline: A methodical shift from discretionary "betting" to algorithmic execution reduces bias and human error.
