About
Rides Bitcoin and Big Tech rallies using short‑term momentum, but steps into a volatility spike fund when the stock market looks overheated—and shorts Bitcoin after sharp drops. Equal‑weights a few recent winners across crypto, FAANGT, and small caps.
1) Overheated check: If several broad market/sector barometers show an extreme short‑term “heat” reading (a 0–100 speedometer of recent moves above ~80), the strategy moves 100% into UVXY, a fund that jumps when volatility spikes.
2) If not overheated: It checks Bitcoin’s trend using 50‑ vs 200‑day averages (via BITO). If trending up, it buys an equal‑weight basket of the recent top performers from Bitcoin‑linked names, Big Tech (Apple, Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Tesla), and small caps—picked by 3‑, 9‑, and 22‑day momentum.
3) If Bitcoin isn’t trending up and recently fell hard (>10% from a 30‑day peak), it buys a short‑Bitcoin ETF (BITI). If the drop wasn’t that severe, it still picks recent winners but leans more on index/sector leveraged ETFs.
Out-of-sample edge: higher Sharpe, alpha, and Calmar versus the S&P 500, with upside from crypto/mega-cap momentum and a volatility hedge when markets overheat. Potential for outsized returns with smarter risk management.
