About
Daily rotation among TQQQ, SOXL/SOXS, UVXY, or T‑Bills based on how “hot/cold” tech looks, recent drops, a simple trend line, and bond‑market checks. Tries to ride sharp upswings and step aside (or hedge) when risk spikes.
Each day it reads a few simple gauges on a fast‑moving tech fund (TQQQ). If TQQQ looks extremely “hot,” it flips to SOXS (a 3x short bet on chip stocks). If TQQQ just plunged (>12% in 6 days), it uses a crash playbook: big 1‑day pop → UVXY (volatility), very “cold” → SOXL (3x chips), else SOXL only if bonds look calm, or T‑Bills (BIL). Otherwise: if the Nasdaq trend is up → TQQQ; if not, it only takes TQQQ when bond signals are favorable; else BIL.
Out-of-sample annualized return 63.3% with a Calmar of 1.44, signaling strong risk-adjusted upside vs. the S&P. Daily rotation among leveraged tech bets and hedges aims to ride tech upswings while damping drawdowns with cash-like ballast.
