About
A daily rebalanced long/short portfolio that bets Bitcoin-related stocks like MicroStrategy and Coinbase are weaker than Bitcoin itself, while balancing that view with tech, Bitcoin, gold, and other hedges.
This strategy mixes bets that rise and fall for different reasons, then gives smaller allocations to the wilder positions and bigger ones to the steadier ones based on the last 20 days of price swings.
Its main idea is: bet against companies tied to crypto hype—especially MicroStrategy and Coinbase—while still owning Bitcoin itself and some large tech stocks. It also owns gold while betting against gold-mining stocks, aiming to reduce company-specific risk.
Diversified long/short across crypto proxies, tech, and gold to hedge crypto hype and add ballast. OOS: drawdown 7.21% vs 8.68% S&P 500; return 2.83% vs 17.85%; Calmar 0.39, Sharpe 0.37 - offers downside protection and diversification.
