CURRENT VVIX / VIX REGIME iVVIX measures expected volatility in VIX options. Dividing VVIX by VIX gives us a simple stress gauge: lower readings generally support normal risk-taking; readings above 6 signal a more fragile volatility environment and call for tighter profit targets and less new risk.

THE FARLAND FIVE

Five put-selling ideas. One official list.

Not yet published
5

One list. One trading day.

Every trading morning, Farland screens its proprietary ESPP universe—our “Easy, Safe, Profitable and Pleasant” universe of companies—then ranks complete setups and freezes the five highest-conviction ideas for that day. “Safe” and “profitable” describe our screening philosophy, not guarantees of outcome.

HOW WE SELECT THE FARLAND FIVE

A curated universe. A proprietary ranking model. Five opportunities.

Quality first. Opportunity second. Structure third.

Our ESPP universe stands for Farland Capital's proprietary “Easy, Safe, Profitable and Pleasant” company universe. It is internal screening shorthand for companies we believe merit consideration for assignment-oriented put selling based on business quality, durability, option liquidity and willingness to own the shares if assigned. The words “safe” and “profitable” are not guarantees.

The model then evaluates 14-day RSI, distance from the 21-day EMA, 50-day SMA and 200-day SMA, proximity to the 52-week low, IV Rank, current implied volatility, five-day volatility expansion, price momentum, option activity, liquidity and event risk.

The options layer generally looks for puts 30–45 days to expiration near 20–25 delta, while considering open interest, volume, bid/ask quality, earnings risk and downside fragility. The five highest-conviction complete setups become that trading day's Farland Five and are frozen for the day.

01

ESPP Universe

Curated companies selected for quality, durability, options liquidity and assignment suitability.

02

Opportunity Detection

RSI, moving averages and 52-week context identify pullbacks and oversold conditions.

03

Volatility Edge

IV Rank, current IV and five-day IV expansion evaluate premium richness.

04

Contract & Risk

DTE, delta, liquidity, earnings risk and downside fragility determine final selection.
