About
A daily, rules‑based mix of leveraged stocks and bonds. In quiet or chaotic markets it tactically trades 3x Nasdaq, cash, or volatility; otherwise it blends 3x S&P 500 with 3x Treasuries, using “hot/cold” scores, trends, and drawdowns to manage risk.
Rebalanced daily. Two modes:
- If volatility is very hot or very calm, it runs a Nasdaq module: buy TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) after washouts, sit in BIL (T‑bills) when shaky, and briefly own UVXY (volatility) at extremes.
- Otherwise it blends UPRO (3x S&P 500) with TMF (3x long Treasuries) using inverse‑vol sizing; in big selloffs it may switch to a cautious SPY/SHY mix or a rare contrarian UPRO bet. Signals include RSI (0–100 hot/cold), price vs 25‑day average, drawdowns, and bond‑vs‑stock strength.
Dynamic, rules-based 3x levered stock/bond mix with volatility regime switches and cash hedges. Out-of-sample: positive risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe ~0.62, ~17.6% annualized) with built-in risk controls vs the S&P.
