About
Daily, trend-and-momentum rules. Mostly rides TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) in uptrends; shifts to UVXY if things look too hot. In downtrends, plays oversold bounces (TECL/UPRO) or rotates to SQQQ or TLT by strength. Very aggressive; big swings.
Daily rules use two gauges: trend (price vs 200‑day average) and short‑term “heat” (10‑day RSI = recent buying vs selling). If the S&P 500 is in an uptrend, hold TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) unless heat is extreme; then switch to UVXY (volatility). If not in an uptrend, try oversold bounces via TECL (3x tech) or UPRO (3x S&P). If no bounce, hold SQQQ (‑3x Nasdaq) or TLT (Treasuries)—whichever is stronger. Uses leveraged funds; swings are large.
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers top-line gains with strong risk-adjusted efficiency: ~77% annualized vs ~19% for the S&P 500, Sharpe ~1.20 vs ~1.12, Calmar ~1.54. Tactical, tech-heavy exposure with hedges to navigate volatility.
