About
A daily, tactical S&P 500 strategy: first check inflation trends (RINF), then use recent-move scores (RSI) and a 200‑day trend to switch among S&P 500 bull/bear funds, long Treasuries, or a defensive split of short S&P and gold.
Daily steps:
1) Inflation regime: is RINF above its 200‑day average (long‑term trend)?
2) If yes: compare 15‑day RSI (0–100 recent‑moves score) of BND (bonds) vs QQQ (big tech). If bonds score higher: use SPY’s 10‑day RSI: <65 buy SPXL (3x bull); >75 buy SPXS (3x bear); else buy TMF (3x long Treas). If bonds don’t: >80 buy SPXS; <25 buy SPXL; else: if SPY > 200‑day hold SPY, otherwise split SH (−1x S&P) and GLD (gold).
3) If inflation not up: <30 buy SPXL; else: if SPY > 200‑day hold SPY, otherwise split SH and GLD.
Tickers: SPY=US stocks; SPXL/SPXS=3x bull/bear; SH=−1x; GLD=gold; TMF=3x 20+yr Treas; BND=bonds; QQQ=Nasdaq‑100; RINF=inflation‑expectations.
Out-of-sample annualized return near 24% vs SPY’s 17.7%, with a Calmar ~0.51, signaling solid risk-adjusted gains. But be aware of larger drawdowns (~46.6% vs 18.8%), so suitable for risk-tolerant investors seeking upside.
