Workflow

Step 1 — Identify hedge objective

Clarify with the user:

• What is being hedged: single position, portfolio, or sector exposure?
• Risk to hedge: market Beta, tail event, currency, or volatility?
• Hedge horizon: days, weeks, or months?
• Cost tolerance: zero-cost (collar) or willing to pay premium?

Step 2 — Fetch data

longbridge kline --help
longbridge option --help

# Beta calculation (60-day daily returns)
longbridge kline <SYMBOL> --period day --count 60 --format json

# Option chain for hedge instruments
longbridge option chain <SYMBOL> --format json

# Current portfolio positions (requires login with trade scope)
longbridge positions --format json

Step 3 — Beta hedge

Portfolio Beta:

β_portfolio = Σ(w_i × β_i)

Compute individual Beta for each holding from 60-day returns vs benchmark (SPX / HSI / CSI300). Fetch benchmark kline with longbridge kline <BENCHMARK> --period day --count 60 --format json.

Hedge ratio (index futures or inverse ETF):

Contracts needed = (Portfolio Value × β_portfolio) / (Futures Price × Contract Multiplier)

Present: number of contracts, hedge cost, and residual Beta after hedge.

Step 4 — Options-based protection

Protective Put (保护性看跌期权介绍):

• 原理：持有正股的同时持有看跌期权；当标的价格下跌时，期权价值上升，可对冲下行风险。常见做法是选择平值（ATM）或略虚值（OTM）的看跌期权。
• Cost = put premium; protection kicks in below strike.
• Effective floor = Strike − Premium paid.
• 具体期权合约是否适用，请根据自身持仓情况和风险偏好独立判断。
• Fetch available strikes: longbridge option chain <SYMBOL> --format json.

Collar Strategy (zero-cost or near-zero):

• Buy OTM put (downside protection) + sell OTM call (cap upside).
• Net premium ≈ 0 if call premium offsets put premium.
• Present: put strike, call strike, net cost, max gain, max loss.

Selection criteria:

Criterion	Protective Put	Collar
Upside retention	Full	Capped at call strike
Cost	Premium paid	Near zero
Best for	Bullish with hedge need	Neutral/mild bearish

Step 5 — Tail risk hedges

Tool	Instrument	Mechanism
VIX calls	UVXY.US / VIX options	Profit from volatility spike
Gold	GLD.US / 518880.SH	Safe-haven in risk-off
Long-dated US Treasuries	TLT.US	Negative correlation with equities
Put on index	SPY puts / HSI puts	Direct market hedge

Note: fetch current price and recent kline for any hedge instrument before recommending.

Step 6 — Currency hedge

For HK/US cross-currency portfolios:

• USD/HKD is pegged — minimal FX risk.
• CNY exposure: use offshore RMB (CNH) forwards or futures.
• Non-HKD Asian exposure: fetch FX rate via longbridge fx --format json (verify flag with --help).

Present notional hedge amount, instrument, tenor, and estimated cost.

Step 7 — Hedge cost assessment

Cost efficiency = Protection value / Premium paid

Present: premium as % of protected notional, breakeven move, and expected cost per 1% of downside protection.

CLI

longbridge kline --help
longbridge option --help
longbridge positions --help

longbridge kline <SYMBOL> --period day --count 60 --format json
longbridge option chain <SYMBOL> --format json
longbridge positions --format json

Output

Present:

1. Hedge objective summary.
2. Recommended strategy with rationale.
3. Implementation details (strikes, contracts, premium).
4. Cost vs protection table.
5. Scenarios: portfolio value if market falls 10% / 20% with and without hedge.
6. Caveats (basis risk, early exercise for American options, liquidity).

Always note: hedging reduces risk but also limits upside.
