About

Aggressive momentum strategy: rides Bitcoin/Big Tech/small-cap winners (often via leveraged funds) when trends are up; flips to a volatility hedge (UVXY) when markets look overheated, and may short Bitcoin in downtrends. Very high risk.
NutHow it works
Goal: ride rallies in Bitcoin, Big Tech and small caps, and step aside when things look too hot. RSI = a 0–100 speedometer of recent gains; >75–80 = overheated. Moving averages (50 vs 200 days) flag uptrends. If many indexes look overheated, it moves to UVXY (a volatility fund). Else: if Bitcoin trends up, ~80% goes to recent winners (crypto plays/FAANG/small caps) and ~20% trades volatility (UVXY or SVIX). If Bitcoin trends down, it may short Bitcoin.
CheckmarkValue prop
An out-of-sample momentum strategy riding BTC/FAANG/small-caps with a volatility hedge. Targets ~39.8% annualized return vs ~15% for SPY, with ~0.82–0.83 Sharpe and ~0.91 Calmar—strong risk-adjusted growth, albeit higher drawdowns.
