About
Daily, one‑ETF rotation using long‑term trend and 10‑day “heat” checks. In uptrends it favors TQQQ; when overheated it hedges with UVXY. In downtrends it may try rebounds (TECL/UPRO) or shift to SQQQ or TLT. Very aggressive.
Each day it picks one ETF based on two tests:
1) Trend: Is SPY above its 200‑day average? If yes, it usually holds TQQQ (3x Nasdaq). If the recent 10‑day move looks “too hot,” it briefly flips to UVXY (volatility).
2) If SPY is below trend, it may try rebound buys in TECL/UPRO (3x Tech/S&P). If weakness persists, it chooses SQQQ (inverse Nasdaq) or TLT (Treasuries), whichever looks stronger over ~10 days.
Out-of-sample, this strategy beats SPY on risk-adjusted returns: ~104% annualized vs ~22%, Sharpe ~1.50 vs ~1.38, Calmar ~2.07. Note drawdowns around ~50%—suited for aggressive, growth-seeking investors.
