About
A fast‑moving, high‑risk plan: if markets look overheated, it buys UVXY to bet on a volatility pop. Otherwise it flips between leveraged long/short tech‑heavy ETFs based on recent gains and how jumpy prices are, or parks in T‑bills when signals are unclear.
Step 1: Check if the market/sectors look overheated using RSI—a 0–100 “heat” score (≈80+ = too hot). If yes, buy UVXY, which tends to jump when fear/volatility spikes.
Step 2: Otherwise, split across three areas—Nasdaq‑100 (QQQ), Semiconductors (SOXX), and U.S. Tech (IYW). For each: big gains + big swings ⇒ 3× bear (SQQQ/SOXS/TECS); big gains + calm ⇒ 3× bull (TQQQ/SOXL/TECL); mixed ⇒ T‑bills (BIL).
Out-of-sample upside: ~52% annualized vs ~24% for the S&P, powered by volatility timing and tech sleeves. Higher potential returns with disciplined risk controls—though drawdowns can be larger in stressed markets.
