About
A daily, rule-based trader that rides strong tech/S&P trends with 3x ETFs, cools off to T‑bills when markets run too hot, flips to inverse ETFs or bonds in weak markets, and can switch toward KMLM (managed futures) when that non‑stock trend looks stronger.
It’s a daily rulebook that reads a few “dials” on the market: trend (200‑day average), and how hot/cold prices moved lately (RSI). If things look overheated, it parks in cash-like T‑bills (BIL). In healthy uptrends it holds fast movers (often 3x funds: TQQQ=Nasdaq‑100, SPXL=S&P 500, TECL/SOXL=Tech/Semis). In weak trends it can flip to inverse funds (SQQQ, SPXU), bonds (TMF) or even inverse bonds (TMV). It also compares Tech (XLK) vs KMLM (managed futures) and tilts to whichever looks stronger. Often picks the top 2–3 by recent strength and rotates.
Defensive, rule-based strategy that uses cash, hedges, and managed futures to cap losses. In downturns it tends to have smaller drawdowns than the S&P 500 and adds diversification, though out-of-sample returns can be negative.
