About
Aggressive, rules‑based, daily strategy that rides tech uptrends with 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), flips to cash‑like T‑Bills (BIL) or a volatility hedge (VIXY + BIL) when risk spikes, and trades 3x semiconductors (SOXL/SOXS) at extremes.
Daily, it asks: Is the market hot or crashing (using a 0–100 “heat” score, trends, recent drops, and volatility gauges)?
If risky: sit in T‑Bills (BIL) or a half‑and‑half hedge (VIXY + BIL).
If healthy: ride tech with 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ).
When semiconductors look extreme, briefly use 3x SOXL (up) or SOXS (down).
Ultra-aggressive, rules-driven tech strategy targets big upside with 3x Nasdaq bets and hedges. A high-risk satellite to the S&P offering diversification via semis and volatility hedges, but OOS shows large drawdowns and negative returns.
