About
Daily switches using a 200-day trend check plus a 10-day RSI heat gauge. Mostly holds TQQQ (3x Nasdaq); when overheated it parks in UVXY. In downtrends it rotates among TECL/UPRO (3x bullish), SQQQ (-3x Nasdaq), or TLT (Treasuries).
Each day it checks the trend of QQQ (Nasdaq-100) using a 200-day average. If trend is up, it holds TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) unless a 10-day RSI (0-100 heat gauge) says things are very hot (~80+), then it briefly holds UVXY (a fear/volatility fund). If trend is down, it uses these short-term signals to rotate among TECL/UPRO (3x bullish), SQQQ (-3x Nasdaq), or TLT (Treasuries).
Funds: TQQQ, TECL, SPXL/UPRO, SQQQ, UVXY, TLT.
Out-of-sample edge: 101% annualized return, Sharpe 1.39, Calmar 2.78 vs SPY. Higher upside from a disciplined tech-leveraged tilt and volatility hedge; note larger drawdowns than the S&P.
