About
Mainly rides UDOW (3× Dow 30) in uptrends, but switches to UVXY (volatility), SPXU (−3× S&P 500), TLT (Treasuries), or BIL (T‑bills) when prices overheat, drop fast, or volatility surges. One fund at a time.
Always one fund. If the S&P 500 is above its 200‑day average, it mainly holds UDOW (targets ~3× the Dow 30). If a short‑term heat gauge (RSI) says prices ran too fast, it briefly buys UVXY (volatility). After sharp 1‑week drops or big daily bounces it may use SPXU (−3× S&P 500) or, when turbulence spikes, TLT (long Treasuries). If the S&P 500 is below trend, it shifts to BIL (T‑bills), TLT or SPXU, but can buy UDOW on deep dips.
Out-of-sample: 35.6% annualized return vs 21.5% for the S&P 500. Leverages UDOW in uptrends with hedges (UVXY/SPXU/TLT/BIL). Higher upside, but larger drawdowns (~40% vs ~19%). Calmar ~0.88 indicates a solid risk-adjusted edge.
