About
Daily-rebalanced, beta-heavy strategy using many levered tech and volatility ETFs, with volatility and bond hedges plus dividend overlays. It relies on short-term momentum/RSI signals to pick 1–2 assets per block, then combines blocks for a total portfolio. Very volatile but designed to chase tech strength while hedging risk.
- Rebalances daily and decides a portfolio by walking through many layered decisions (a tree of if-then rules).
- Each decision looks at a ticker (like UVXY for volatility or TECL/SOXL for leveraged tech) and compares current signals (mostly short-term price momentum and relative strength scores) to thresholds (often values like 79 on a 10-day RSI, or moving-average based metrics).
- Based on which rules fire, the strategy assigns cash to positions in a given block. Within a block, it often uses top/bottom sorting on recent performance (e.g., which levered tech or volatility bet performed best in a short window) and picks 1–2 assets to fund (weighting is typically 100% within that block).
- Blocks are grouped into larger themes (for example, Bullish Market Conditions / Risk ON, Risk OFF, Safety Town). Each block produces a sub-portfolio; all block sub-portfolios are combined to form the final allocation.
- The mix leans heavily on levered tech ETFs (SOXL, TECL, SPXL) for upside exposure, while volatility-related ETFs (UVXY, VIXY, VIXM, SVXY) and bond-related or dividend ETFs (SCHD, DGRO, BIL, SHY, TLT, TMF, UGL, etc.) provide hedges and defensive ballast.
- The intent is to chase momentum in favorable regimes and protect against downturns with hedges, but the strategy can swing dramatically because levered ETFs magnify moves and volatility signals can flip quickly.
- In short: it’s a momentum-driven, volatility-hedged, highly diversified levered-exposure approach designed to ride a tech-led upcycle while keeping downside risk in check via a broad set of hedges.
Out-of-sample: ~67% annualized return, Sharpe ~1.36, Calmar ~2.44 vs S&P ~19% and Sharpe ~1.09. Levered tech with volatility hedges and daily rebalancing targets superior risk-adjusted upside; note higher drawdown (~27.6%).
