Market structure. Execution. Risk.

Two charcoal dragons facing inward above a gold horizon.

XIV is my options trading and market research initiative, focused on market structure, execution, and risk management. Originally developed as my software engineering thesis at Florida State University, it applies software and AI to research and performance analysis.

Approach
  • Study price action across multiple timeframes.
  • Define entry, exit, and position-risk criteria.
  • Review trading costs, drawdowns, and decision quality.
