About
A short‑term, high‑octane strategy that mostly trades semiconductor ETFs, flipping between 3x bull (SOXL) and 3x bear (SOXS) using a hot/cold gauge (RSI), with macro checks (stocks vs bonds, US dollar) and a small defensive cash/Costco/UNH sleeve.
RSI is a quick “speedometer” of recent ups vs downs (high = hot; low = washed out). Most money rides a chip engine that flips between a 3x bull (SOXL) and 3x bear (SOXS) based on how hot/cold a chip ETF (SOXX) looks. If chips aren’t extreme, it splits into: a USD/commodities sleeve, a stock‑vs‑bond risk sleeve that buys SOXL/SMH or hedges with gold/inverse ETFs, and a small “Meat Shield” that parks in T‑Bills or rotates into Costco/UnitedHealth. Uses short lookbacks; high risk.
Similar long-run returns (~23.24%/yr OOS) with chip-cycle exposure, macro overlays, and hedges. Adds diversification and upside in tech rallies—though OOS drawdowns and Sharpe lag vs the S&P.
