About
Aggressive switcher: mostly rides TQQQ in uptrends, flips to UVXY when things look overheated, buys oversold rebounds, and shifts part to Treasuries/US dollar/gold when rates or volatility rise. Very high risk due to leveraged funds and UVXY.
Plain English: It tries to ride big uptrends in tech (TQQQ = a fund that targets 3× the Nasdaq-100’s daily move). When the market looks “too hot” (a short‑term heat gauge called RSI is very high) or after a huge up day, it briefly flips into UVXY (a fund that jumps when fear spikes). If the market looks “too cold” (RSI very low), it buys for a rebound (TECL/SOXL/SPXL). It also checks trend (is SPY above its 200‑day average?), bond vs cash momentum (to judge rate pressure), and volatility. In calm uptrends it stays in TQQQ; when rates or volatility rise, it adds a safety pick (best of Treasuries, US dollar, gold, or cash).
Out-of-sample performance delivers elite risk-adjusted upside: Sharpe ~1.55 vs SPY ~1.02, Calmar ~3.71, and annualized return ~136% vs ~18%, aided by tactical risk-off hedges. Higher growth with disciplined risk management.
