About
Mostly sits in T‑bills. When many market/sector funds look “too hot” on a short‑term 0–100 heat gauge, it flips into UVXY—a fund that tends to surge when fear spikes and stocks dip. After sharp tech whiplash, it may also buy UVXY.
Daily it checks many stock funds—broad market (SPY), styles (growth/value), sectors (Staples, Discretionary, Energy, Communications), and fast tech/financial funds (TQQQ, TECL, FAS). It scores their last 10 days with a 0–100 “heat” gauge (RSI). If any are extremely hot (~79–80), it buys UVXY (jumps when fear rises). Otherwise it sits in BIL (T‑bills).
Backup: after a sharp 6‑day drop in TQQQ, if there’s a big 1‑day rebound (>5.5%), it also buys UVXY; else BIL.
Volatility-timing strategy with standout OOS upside: ~37.6% annualized return vs SPY ~21.9%, Calmar 1.53. Negative beta offers diversification, and cash exposure limits losses when markets are calm—unlike plain SPY.
