About
A daily, rules‑based “risk switch” that rotates among leveraged tech, Treasuries (long or inverse), volatility hedges, inverse equity ETFs, and T‑Bills. It uses simple ideas—overbought/oversold, trend lines, and fear gauges—to tilt risk on or off.
Daily “risk switch.”
- RSI: a 0–100 “heat meter” (low = washed‑out, high = overheated).
- Moving average: a trend line; above it = uptrend.
- VIX funds: fear gauges (UVXY spikes in selloffs; SVXY benefits from calm).
Logic: If markets are hot, add volatility hedges (UVXY). If trend is up and fear low, own growth (TQQQ/TECL) or SVXY. If stocks weaken, buy Treasuries (TLT/TMF) or inverse (TMV) if rates rise. In downtrends use PSQ/SH. No clear read? Park in T‑Bills (BIL/SHV).
Out-of-sample annualized return 34.6% vs SPY 20.7%; Calmar 1.44; alpha ~0.12; Sharpe ~1.14. A rules-based risk-switching strategy targets tech-led upside with volatility hedges, offering stronger risk-adjusted performance than the S&P 500.
