About
Daily, it hedges with UVXY when markets look too hot, buys 3x tech (TECL) when tech looks washed out, otherwise owns TSLA only if its short‑term trend is up in a bond‑friendly regime; if not, it parks in T‑bills (SHV).
Each day: if big indexes look extremely “hot” (RSI—a recent up/down “heat” score—>80 on QQQ or SPY), buy UVXY (jumps when stocks fall).
Else if TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) looks very “cold” (RSI<31), buy TECL (3x tech) for a bounce.
Else compare IEF (Treasuries) vs PSQ (short Nasdaq). If IEF stronger, own TSLA only if its 8‑day avg > 21‑day avg; otherwise hold SHV (T‑bills). If PSQ stronger, hold SHV.
Out-of-sample edge: higher risk-adjusted returns (Sharpe ~1.49 vs SPY ~1.18), Calmar ~2.45, and ~95.5% annualized return vs ~20% for SPY. Uses hedges and tech tilt to capture upside; note larger bear-market drawdowns.
