About
Daily momentum-driven rotation among leveraged ETFs to ride uptrends (e.g., TQQQ, SPXL, TECL) with volatility/bond hedges (UVXY, VIXY, SQQQ, QID, SHY, BSV) to limit risk; highly aggressive, dynamic, and complex.
Layman version:
- Think of a squad of ETFs (exchange-traded funds) as players. Some players go up a lot when tech stocks rise (these include 3x levered bets like TQQQ on Nasdaq or SPXL on the S&P 500). Some players help you when things get choppy or scary (inverse ETFs like SQQQ, QID or volatility bets like UVXY, VIXY).
- Every day, the system scores each player on momentum and trend signals. It looks at how prices are moving over different time windows and whether the price is in an uptrend (for example, above its long-term average).
- It then ranks the players and picks the strongest one to own with all-in exposure (almost always one main ETF at a time).
- If the market looks risky (money chaos rising, volatility going up, or momentum turning negative), the system shifts some or all exposure into hedges or safer assets (bonds or the dollar).
- The plan is refreshed daily, continually chasing the strongest momentum while trying to avoid big losses when risk spikes. The result is a high-risk, high-reward approach that relies on leveraged bets to capture big moves but uses volatility and bond/dollar hedges as a risk brake.
- Example of common assets involved: TQQQ (3x Nasdaq), TECL (3x tech), SOXL (3x semiconductors), SPXL (3x S&P 500), QLD (2x Nasdaq), SQQQ/QID (inverse Nasdaq bets), UVXY/VIXY (short-term volatility), SPY/QQQ/QQQ family as core market proxies, SHY/BSV (short-duration bonds), UUP (US dollar). Some variants also include other niche ETFs; the exact mix shifts daily based on signals.
- Important: this is a very aggressive strategy. Leveraged exposures magnify both gains and losses, and backtested performance does not guarantee future results.
Out-of-sample: ~32% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, driven by daily momentum rotation among leveraged ETFs with volatility/bonds hedges. Higher drawdowns (~34% vs ~19%), but potential for stronger long-run growth with risk controls.
