About
A daily trading strategy that tries to buy sharp dips or fade overheated moves in big tech and semiconductors, then falls back to a leveraged macro portfolio based on market fear and bond trends.
This strategy splits money in half between two fast-moving areas: big tech (QQQ) and chip stocks (SOXX).
If either area looks too hot after a sharp rise, it bets on a pullback. If it looks beaten down after a sharp drop, it buys the rebound. If neither setup appears, it switches into a separate adaptive portfolio that looks at market fear and interest-rate trends to choose between cash-like bonds, leveraged stock funds, Treasury trades, the U.S. dollar, utilities, and gold miners.
Out-of-sample, this strategy blends mean-reversion in tech/semis with a macro risk-off overlay. It targets ~50% annualized return vs ~20% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.26 and Sharpe ~1.16. Drawdowns can be larger in stress.
