About
A tactical MicroStrategy (MSTR) strategy that shifts between MSTR, a 2x long MSTR ETF (MSTU), and a 2x inverse MSTR ETF (MSTZ) using simple price averages. It can be ~1.5x long in strong uptrends, near flat in mixed signals, or ~2x against in downtrends.
Tickers: MSTR=MicroStrategy (stock). MSTU≈2x MSTR each day. MSTZ≈-2x MSTR each day.
Portfolio = two equal slices.
Rule 1 (short-term): if MSTR’s 9-day average price > 10-day, hold MSTU; otherwise follow Rule 2.
Rule 2 (trend): if MSTR’s 50-day average > 200-day, hold MSTR; else hold MSTZ.
Outcomes: up+up -> ~1.5x long; up+down -> ~1x long; down+up -> ~flat; down+down -> ~2x against.
Regime-driven strategy using MSTR and 2x ETFs to tilt toward ~1.5x in uptrends and flat in mixed markets. Out-of-sample results are negative vs the S&P (annualized -52%, large drawdowns), so it’s a high-risk satellite for risk-tolerant, crypto-beta diversification.
