About
A very aggressive daily strategy that usually bets on calm markets with SVXY, switches to UVXY when market stress looks high, and occasionally buys beaten-down leveraged tech funds for quick rebound trades.
This strategy checks the market every day and puts 100% of the money into just one holding.
First, it looks for sharp short-term selloffs in leveraged tech funds like SOXL, SPXL, and TQQQ. If one looks heavily beaten down, it buys that fund for a rebound trade.
If not, it asks: does the market look overheated or jumpy across areas like tech, value, financials, and consumer stocks? If yes, it buys UVXY, a fund that tends to rise when fear and volatility spike.
If none of those warning signs appear, it buys SVXY, a fund that tends to do better when markets stay calm and volatility falls.
Out-of-sample edge: ~62% annualized return vs ~15% for the S&P; Sharpe ~1.04 vs ~0.91; Calmar ~1.29. Strategy pivots between calm-market SVXY and volatility-spike UVXY, with occasional beaten-down leveraged-tech rebounds. Note: higher drawdown (~48%).
