About
Daily, it checks if the S&P 500 is in an uptrend. In uptrends it stays mostly in cash with some Nasdaq, and switches to volatility when things look overheated. In downtrends it flips between leveraged bull/bear tech funds with cash. High risk.
Each day it asks: Is the S&P 500 above its 200‑day average (long‑term trend)? If yes, hold mostly cash-like Treasuries (SHV) with a small slice of Nasdaq (QQQ/TQQQ); if short‑term “heat” (RSI, a 0–100 gauge) is extreme, shift to volatility (UVXY). If below, use RSI and the 20‑day line to flip between leveraged long tech (TQQQ/TECL/UPRO) and short tech (SQQQ), always buffered by SHV.
Out-of-sample edge: ~10.37% annual return vs SPY ~1.09%, Sharpe ~1.07 vs ~0.15, Calmar ~5.07, and lower drawdown (~2.04% vs 2.53%). Lower beta with dynamic hedges means higher upside and controlled risk.
