About
Aggressive, daily-tactical Nasdaq-100 strategy. Buys TQQQ on strength or deep dips, shorts QQQ when rallies look tired or momentum breaks, and occasionally buys UVXY at extreme euphoria. Uses simple “hot/cold” signals; very high risk.
Each day it checks simple signals on QQQ. RSI is a 0–100 gauge of how fast price has risen or fallen (high = “hot,” low = “cold”). A short moving average is a quick trend line (price above it = rising). Using these plus the last 2–3 days’ move, it either: buys TQQQ (3x long QQQ), shorts QQQ (PSQ/SQQQ), buys UVXY (a volatility pop bet), or parks in BIL (cash-like). Hot: ride or fade; Cold: buy dips; Neutral: quick momentum/regime check.
Out-of-sample Nasdaq-100 tactical strategy aims for higher upside than SPY (≈15.8%/yr) with Calmar ~0.60, using levered longs and hedges (UVXY/shorts). Potential alpha in tech rallies, but with higher drawdowns and volatility.
