About
A tech‑tilted, rules-based strategy that buys 3x tech on trends or deep dips, hedges or moves to cash during spikes, and falls back to SPHD (high‑dividend, low‑vol stocks) when bond and price signals flash caution.
It’s a rules-based, tech‑tilted plan with three sleeves:
1) If fear spikes, run a fast “pop” playbook: when tech looks too hot, short tech + buy VIX; when washed‑out, buy 3x tech; otherwise sit in T‑Bills.
2) In calmer times, buy 3x S&P/Dow/tech when trend is up and bonds aren’t warning; else hold SPHD (high‑dividend, low‑vol stocks).
3) A dip‑buying sleeve in 3x tech after sharp drops.
Signals use simple gauges: RSI (hot/cold), moving averages (trend), drawdowns (recent worst fall).
Out-of-sample: Sharpe ~1.51 vs 1.37, annualized return ~65% vs ~21%, Calmar ~2.16. A tech-tilted, rules-based plan using 3x tech with hedges and SPHD defense for higher, risk-adjusted growth than the S&P.
