About
A daily-rebalanced, multi‑strategy ETF portfolio using momentum, trend, and volatility signals to tilt among stocks, leveraged ETFs, bonds, gold, and cash, with built‑in hedges to target roughly 7–15% APY and 5–10% max drawdown.
- What it is: a daily-rebalanced, ETF-based portfolio made of many conditional bets across stocks, bonds, gold, commodities, and volatility. It uses simple signals (momentum, trend, and volatility) to decide which assets to hold. - Signals you’ll hear about: RSI (a momentum gauge), moving-average checks (is the price/trend above or below a long-term average), and momentum rankings (which asset is currently strongest or weakest by returns). - How it picks assets: in many parts, it selects a single asset from a group using a top/bottom rule (e.g., the strongest 1 asset by a momentum metric, or the weakest by an inverse/short signal). It also sometimes uses multiple assets with cash/equal weighting to maintain a buffer. - What it buys or uses: broad market exposure (SPY, QQQ proxies), high-quality bonds (IEI, SHY, AGG, BND), inflation/deflation hedges (GLD for gold, TLT for long Treasuries, TMF for leveraged treasury exposure), cash proxies (BIL), and hedges/leveraged bets for volatility and bear markets (UVXY, VIXY, SQQQ, SDS, SOXS, TECL, TQQQ, UVXY, VIXY). - How it adapts to regimes: when signals indicate risk-on (uptrends, strong momentum), leverage and growth-linked ETFs may be favored. When signals indicate risk-off (overbought momentum, instability, or deteriorating trend), the model shifts toward cash, Treasuries, gold, and hedges, often via inverse or volatility vehicles. - Why it can be attractive: diversification across many regimes can, in theory, capture upside from several sources and provide protective hedges during downturns, with a disciplined daily rebalance. - Important caveats: the strategy relies on back-tested indicators and levered ETFs, which magnify gains and losses. Leveraged/short ETFs can experience decay and may require close risk management. The approach is not a guarantee of returns and may underperform during sustained regime shifts or during periods when correlations across assets rise. - In plain terms: think of it as a big machine that looks at many parts of the financial world every day, tries to predict which part will do best next, and then moves money around between those parts while keeping some cash and hedges in place to protect you if the market turns unfriendly.
Out-of-sample Sharpe ~2.51 vs SPY ~1.10; Calmar ~2.89; max drawdown 4.3% vs 18.8%. Higher risk-adjusted returns with diversified hedges, offering more durable growth than the S&P 500.
