About
A daily, high-risk trading system that shifts among defensive, volatility, bullish, and bearish leveraged funds based on tech crashes, market turbulence, and whether bonds or tech look stronger.
This strategy checks the market every day and asks 3 questions:
1) Did high-growth tech just crash, then suddenly bounce? If yes, it leans into volatility and other defensive trades.
2) Is the overall U.S. stock market unusually jumpy? If yes, it picks calmer defensive holdings.
3) Otherwise, it compares bonds with tech. If bonds look stronger, it buys beaten-down aggressive funds; if tech looks stronger, it buys beaten-down bearish funds, aiming for short-term rebounds.
Out-of-sample annualized return ~55% vs S&P ~22%; Calmar ~1.17 signals solid risk-adjusted upside, despite a larger max drawdown (~46.8% vs ~18.8%). A daily regime-shifting, leveraged approach aims for bigger upside in chaos than the S&P.
