About
A daily, rules-based, tech-tilted strategy. In calm uptrends it holds VGT; when markets are overheated it hedges with VIXY/defensives; when deeply oversold it buys 3× rebound plays; in downtrends it prefers T‑Bills or shorts tech (PSQ).
Each day the rules pick one stance.
- If the S&P 500’s short‑term “hot/cold” score (RSI) is very hot, hedge with VIXY plus defensive funds (BTAL/EUM).
- If tech or the S&P is very washed out, buy 3× rebound plays (TQQQ or UPRO).
- Otherwise: in uptrends hold VGT (tech) unless semis are too hot, then hedge; in downtrends use T‑Bills or short tech (PSQ), with a few checks for brief strength.
Out-of-sample annualized return ~34% vs SPY ~18%. A rules-based, tech-tilted strategy with hedges (VIXY/BTAL/EUM) and 3x rebound plays to capture upside while managing risk. Calmar ~1.16.
