SecretX Assets

Secretx Assets LLC is a registered investment adviser formed in 2022 that offers discretionary portfolio management and prepares Investment Policy Statements to guide asset selection and monitoring across equities, mutual funds, ETFs, fixed income, real estate funds, IPOs, private placements, and venture capital. The firm’s ADV lists individuals and high-net-worth individuals as client types, while the firm is categorized as an investment manager and reports minimal assets under management ($1,000) with no individual client accounts on file.

The firm’s investment process blends charting, cyclical, fundamental, modern portfolio theory, quantitative, and technical analysis and employs long-term and short-term trading as well as options strategies, including exposure to short-term volatility ETFs and covered options. Accounts are managed on a discretionary basis, the adviser withdraws asset-based fees and may bill qualified clients on a performance basis with a high-water mark, and the firm requires clients to custody assets with a specified broker-dealer (Interactive Brokers) and receives quarterly custodian reports.

Noteworthy aspects include the firm’s acceptance of performance-based compensation and use of less liquid, higher-risk vehicles (IPOs, private placements, venture capital) despite its very small reported AUM, which raises potential side-by-side management and liquidity considerations that the firm addresses in its policies. The sole principal reports multiple outside business activities that generate material income and significant time commitments, and the firm does not accept proxy voting authority for client securities—items prospective clients may wish to consider when evaluating conflicts and operational capacity.
