About
All-in momentum: hold the single strongest trend among US stocks, chips, energy, or commodities. If market “fear” surges (VIXM’s speed gauge is high), switch to VIXM as crash protection. Concentrated and can swing significantly.
Step 1 (panic switch): Check VIXM, a fund tied to market “fear” that tends to jump in crashes. If a 0–100 speed gauge of its rise (RSI over ~40 trading days) is above 69, buy VIXM.
Step 2 (otherwise): Put 100% in the strongest ~3‑month trend among: SPY (US stocks), SOXX/NVDA/AMD (chip stocks), XLE (energy companies), DBC (broad commodities), ENPH (solar). Switch only when the top pick or panic switch changes.
Out-of-sample edge: ~45% annualized return vs SPY ~21%, Calmar ~1.04. A disciplined, single-position momentum strategy with a volatility crash hedge aims for big trend gains while managing tail risk; note drawdowns can be larger in reversals.
