About
A fast, rules‑based mix of buy‑the‑dip/fade‑the‑rip trades in tech and semis, plus a longer‑trend engine that rotates between equity sectors and Treasury bets. Uses 3x ETFs and UVXY. Very high risk; sometimes parks in T‑bills when no edge is seen.
It mixes two tactics: 1) “Pop” trades that buy sharp dips or fade sharp spikes in big tech (QQQ), chipmakers (SMH) and the S&P (SPXL/TQQQ/SOXL, or their shorts SQQQ/SOXS). RSI is a 0–100 “speedometer” of recent moves: high = overheated, low = washed out. 2) If no Pop, it follows longer “waves”: if stocks (SPY) beat commodities (DBC), it holds pro‑stock, plus Treasury trades (TMF=long bonds or TMV=short bonds) based on the rates trend (IEF vs TLT). If nothing’s clear, it parks in T‑bills (BIL) or briefly hedges with volatility (UVXY).
Out-of-sample edge: ~24% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, with dynamic, rules-based exposure to stocks, bonds and cash. Higher upside in edge markets, but more volatility and drawdowns in tougher regimes.
