"""OPT01 — Covered-Call Overlay IDEA: Long spot + sell weekly OTM call modeled via Black-Scholes using DVOL as IV. Net return = spot return capped at strike + call premium received. This is a MODELED lead — real execution requires options book. Methodology: - Hold 1 unit of spot BTC/ETH. - Each week sell 1 weekly call at strike = S * exp(delta_otm * sigma * sqrt(T)). delta_otm controls how far OTM (e.g. 0.10 = 10% OTM in log space). - Premium modeled via Black-Scholes (causal DVOL as IV). - Net weekly return = min(spot_return, log(K/S)) + premium/S i.e. spot gain is capped at the call strike, but we always keep the premium. - Study 4 param sets: delta_otm in {0.05, 0.10} x weekly/biweekly rebalance. - CAVEAT: premiums are MODELED on DVOL ATM/skew not accounted for -> lead-only. - DVOL history starts 2021-03 -> backtest from 2021-03 only. Style: study_weights (continuous position ~1x long + overlay).
