About
A daily, rules‑based, high‑octane portfolio. It rides tech‑led uptrends with 3x funds, buys short-term snap‑backs across sectors, and quickly hedges or parks in cash/managed‑futures when signals turn. Very high risk/turnover.
Each day it: 1) Buys snap-backs after sharp moves by flipping between 3x bull/bear funds in tech (TQQQ/TECL vs SQQQ/TECS), China (YINN/YANG), biotech (LABU/LABD), real estate (DRN/DRV). 2) Uses trend gauges (RSI, 200‑day avg) to go risk‑on (tech/semis) or risk‑off (inverse ETFs, cash BIL) and sometimes managed‑futures (KMLM/DBMF). RSI is a 0–100 heat gauge: <30 weak, >70–80 hot.
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 2.94 vs S&P 1.83; annualized return ~208% vs ~39%; beta ~0.49; Calmar ~21.6; strong risk-adjusted growth with diversification beyond the S&P, despite higher turnover.
