Cboe Canada Welcomes Hamilton ETFs, Launches First-Ever 0DTE Income Funds
Cboe Canada Inc. has officially added Hamilton Capital Partners (Hamilton ETFs) to its growing roster of ETF issuers with the launch of the DayMAX™ suite of ETFs—Canada’s first exchange-traded funds to employ zero days to expiration (0DTE) options for income generation.
Now trading on Cboe Canada under the symbols QDAY, SDAY, and CDAY, these funds provide exposure to Canadian and U.S. equities while leveraging daily call option writing and modest leverage to boost investor income potential.
“We are excited to launch Canada’s first suite of 0DTE ETFs with Cboe Canada,” said Jennifer Mersereau, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Hamilton ETFs. “Our DayMAX™ lineup is built for income-focused investors seeking frequent, higher-yield opportunities.”
What’s in the DayMAX™ Suite?
Each of the three new ETFs brings a unique geographic and sector focus while using an actively managed, ultra-short-term option strategy to enhance yield:
QDAY – Hamilton Enhanced Technology DayMAX™ ETF:
Focuses on U.S. technology stocks with daily call options and modest leverage to increase income.SDAY – Hamilton Enhanced U.S. Equity DayMAX™ ETF:
Targets broader U.S. equity exposure while supplementing returns with short-term options and leverage.CDAY – Hamilton Enhanced Canadian Equity DayMAX™ ETF:
Offers primarily Canadian equity exposure while employing 0DTE strategies across North American holdings.
Why 0DTE Options Are a Game-Changer
Zero days to expiration (0DTE) options are contracts that expire the same day they are written. This approach enables daily income generation and greater flexibility in active management.
By writing daily call options and using 25% leverage, the DayMAX™ suite is engineered to deliver frequent, high-income payouts—a compelling option for yield-seeking investors in today’s market.
Cboe Canada’s Innovation in Action
Cboe Canada, known for fostering ETF innovation, sees the DayMAX™ launch as a pivotal moment.
“The rollout of DayMAX™ by Hamilton ETFs marks an exciting milestone,” said Victor Werny, Head of North American ETP Listings at Cboe Global Markets. “These are the first ETFs in Canada featuring 0DTE strategies—and we’re proud to be part of it.”
