About
Daily, rules-based swing strategy centered on leveraged tech. It buys deep dips, hedges when markets look overheated, and otherwise follows the trend—shifting among 3× tech, inverse tech, bonds, volatility, guided by a Tech vs KMLM regime check. Very volatile.
RSI = 0–100 move gauge (below ~30=washed out, above ~80=overheated). 200/20‑day avgs = trend lines. KMLM = managed‑futures trend fund that can do well when stocks struggle.
Daily: 1) Buy 3× tech on sharp dips (SOXL semis, TQQQ Nasdaq‑100, SPXL S&P). 2) If too hot, hedge with VXX (volatility). 3) Else: if trend up and Tech (XLK) beats KMLM, buy the 2 weakest of TECL/SOXL/TQQQ; else pick SQQQ or TLT. If trend down, use dip‑buys or SQQQ/BSV. 100% in the pick(s).
Tech-focused, rules-based swing strategy aims to capture dips and regime shifts with macro hedges. Out-of-sample data show higher risk and negative returns vs the S&P 500. Best for ultra-tolerant investors seeking diversification, not core exposure.
