HLNEStock and Options Trade Setup — Hamilton Lane Incorporated
Nasdaq · Alternative Asset Management & Private Markets · Low-liquidity options · Mid cap · ~$7.8B
Hamilton Lane is the premier pure-play on the democratization of private markets — the single most powerful structural trend in institutional investing. As the $14T+ private markets industry grows, institutional allocators are turning to specialists like HLNE for manager selection, portfolio construction, and access to top-quartile funds that would otherwise be unavailable. The fee structure is highly attractive: management fees on committed capital (not deployed, so not vulnerable to market drawdowns) plus carried interest on exits. HLNE is also expanding its retail and semi-institutional distribution through evergreen fund structures accessible to RIAs and high-net-worth investors — a market that is still in its infancy. The company has grown fee-earning AUM at double-digit rates for a decade, is generating strong FCF, and operates at expanding margins as the platform scales. It is one of the fastest-growing quality compounders in financial services.

HLNE Options Setup — Frequently Asked Questions
Is HLNE a good options trade today?+
Hamilton Lane Incorporated (HLNE) currently has an Amora Edge Score of 72/100, ranking it top 30% of today's scan. This composite score is built from four sub-signals — EMA cross, RSI zone, relative strength vs SPY, and volume surge — each scored 0–25. The current read is a bullish setup, so the algorithm is positioned bullish (calls / call debit spreads). A score above 65 typically warrants a trade card with stop and target; below that, the setup is on the watchlist but not actionable.
What is HLNE's win rate on Stoptions.ai setups?+
HLNE's historical win rate on closed Stoptions setups is 70%. Win rate is calculated as the percentage of past HLNE trade cards that hit their target price before stopping out. Win rate is most meaningful once a ticker has 10+ closed trades — individual ticker rates can be noisy at smaller samples. Our portfolio-wide win rate across all closed trades is the more stable benchmark.
What strike and expiry does Stoptions.ai suggest for HLNE?+
The strike and expiry are shown on the trade card at the top of this page when the setup is active. Stoptions.ai algorithmically selects strikes targeting delta 0.35–0.45 and expirations 30–45 days out, adjusted for current implied volatility rank (IVR). When IVR is high, the system favors call debit spreads to limit vega risk; when IVR is low, single-leg long calls are preferred. The card includes the contract symbol, mid-price entry, stop, and target.
How often is the HLNE setup updated?+
Every 72 hours we refresh HLNE's Amora Edge Score and trade card. The underlying scan runs daily at 9:00 AM ET (pre-market) and 9:30 AM ET (post-open), so any new signal change is reflected within one trading session. If HLNE drops below the entry threshold or the regime shifts (e.g., SPY enters a confirmed bear), the trade card is replaced with a "no setup" notice automatically.
What does the Amora Edge Score measure for HLNE?+
The Amora Edge Score is a 0–100 composite of four technical sub-signals applied to HLNE: (1) EMA cross — is the 20-day above the 50-day with both trending up? (2) RSI zone — is momentum in the 50–70 sweet spot, or extended/weak? (3) Relative strength vs SPY — is HLNE outperforming the market over 20 sessions? (4) Volume surge — is participation above the 20-day average? Each sub-signal contributes 0–25 points. HLNE currently scores 72.
How does HLNE compare to other Alternative Asset Management & Private Markets setups?+
HLNE's sector rank and percentile against other Alternative Asset Management & Private Markets tickers we track is shown on the /tickers index — sortable by Amora Edge Score, win rate, or sector. For direct comparison, see the "Related Alternative Asset Management & Private Markets Options Setups" panel above. When multiple tickers in the same sector are scoring 80+, the algorithm flags the cluster as a sector rotation signal and may upweight position sizing.
