About
High‑risk, tactical, daily‑rebalanced portfolio rotating among leveraged stock, bond, gold, and real‑estate ETFs. It follows trends, uses RSI to sidestep extremes, and adds a volatility hedge when markets look overheated.
Split into sleeves: US tech/stocks, emerging markets, gold, interest rates, and real estate. It checks the long‑term trend (is price above its 200‑day average?) and a short‑term “hot/cold” meter called RSI (0–100). Based on those, it holds bullish funds, bearish inverse funds, or Treasuries/cash. When stocks look overheated, it sometimes adds UVXY (a volatility spike hedge). Main funds: TQQQ/SQQQ (tech ±3x), TMF/TMV (Treasuries ±3x), UGL/GLL (gold ±2x), EDC/EDZ (EM ±3x), DRN/DRV (REITs ±3x). Rebalanced daily.
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers higher risk-adjusted gains than the S&P 500: Sharpe ~1.80 vs 1.41, Calmar ~3.0, annualized return ~72.8% vs 29.3%. Diversified, tactical leverage with hedges; accepts larger drawdowns for bigger upside.
