About
A day‑to‑day, rules-driven portfolio that rotates among stocks, bonds, commodities and cash. It buys strength or buys dips in strong trends, and quickly shifts to T‑bills, Treasuries, or hedges (VIX/short ETFs) when markets overheat or weaken. Uses some leveraged ETFs, so risk can be high.
It’s a rules-based, daily-checked plan that moves between offense and defense. It looks at simple signals like: trend (price vs its average), momentum/overheated or washed-out (RSI: 0–100; high=hot, low=oversold), and recent returns.
- When trends are healthy, it owns growth/tech (e.g., QQQ/TQQQ/TECL), energy (XLE, oil/gas), and sometimes broad commodities (DBC).
- If markets get too hot, it adds crash protection (VIX funds like UVXY/VIXY) or small shorts.
- If trends break, it hides in T‑bills (BIL/SHV) or Treasuries (TLT/TMF), and can short the market (PSQ/SH).
- Separate sleeves time bonds (TMF/TMV), oil/natural gas (DBO, FCG, BOIL/KOLD), and add a small quality stock mix (LLY, NVO, COST).
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers superior risk-adjusted performance vs the S&P: Sharpe 1.36 vs 1.11, Calmar 2.46, and much smaller max drawdown (7.8% vs 18.8%), with ~19.26% annualized return.
