About
Owns 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ) in healthy uptrends and adds hedges after big run‑ups or when trends break. Hedges include VIX funds, Treasuries, short Nasdaq, or cash‑like bills. Goal: capture tech rallies while cutting deep drawdowns. Very high risk.
Goal: ride big‑tech uptrends (TQQQ) and soften selloffs. If the S&P 500 (SPY) is above the 200‑day average it’s on offense; below, defense.
Offense: own 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ) while trend is up and not too hot. RSI = a speedometer for recent moves (high=hot, low=washed‑out).
Defense: after fast run‑ups or trend breaks, use hedges: VIX up (VIXY/UVXY), Treasuries (TLT/TMF), short Nasdaq (PSQ/SQQQ), or cash‑like (SHV/BIL). It also buys dips and rotates among playbooks with strong recent results.
Tech-led upside with hedging: oos return ~22.1% vs SPY ~18.6% annually. Regime-aware, levered Nasdaq during uptrends + adaptive hedges aim for higher long-run growth than the S&P 500, with risk managed in volatility.
