About
A daily‑rebalanced, rules‑based strategy that rotates between fast stock funds, volatility trades, Treasuries, hedges, and cash. It uses simple “heat” (RSI), trend, and volatility checks to lean risk‑on in calm uptrends and defensive when markets overheat or get jumpy.
It’s a “switch hitter.” Each day it checks a few dials:
- Heat meter (RSI): 0–100 score of how fast price rose. >70 = hot/overbought, <30 = cold/oversold.
- Trend: price vs its average (like the 200‑day).
- Volatility and recent returns/drawdowns.
When stocks are strong and calm, it rides fast funds like TQQQ/UPRO or SVXY. When things look too hot or jumpy, it flips to crash insurance (UVXY/VIXY), Treasuries (TMF/TLT), hedges (BTAL/PSQ/SH) or T‑Bills (BIL/SHV). In panics it can even buy volatility; after selloffs, it may buy beaten‑down tech. It rebalances daily.
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers ~54% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, with higher Sharpe (~1.41 vs ~1.15) and Calmar (~2.39). Dynamic hedges and trend rules chase rallies while improving risk-adjusted upside/downside balance.
