About
A daily, rules‑based switcher: either trade leveraged Nasdaq/semis (long or short) or hold one YieldMax income ETF. Uses simple hot/cold scores, recent moves, a 25‑day trend, and bond “weather” to choose offense, defense, or high‑yield income.
Daily rules choose between two playbooks using SH (an ETF that rises when the S&P 500 falls).
- Tactical: trade leveraged Nasdaq/semis (TQQQ, SOXL/SOXS) or short Nasdaq (SQQQ). A hot/cold score (RSI 0–100), recent big drops/pops, and a 25‑day trend pick long, short, or a defensive mix (BTAL+SQQQ). Bond ETFs (TMF/IEF/TLT/BND) act as “weather” gauges.
- Otherwise: hold one YieldMax income ETF (on AAPL/MSFT/NVDA/TSLA/XOM) with the best recent score.
Out-of-sample, this rules-based strategy targets Nasdaq/semis upside with a YieldMax income sleeve and bond signals. It shows ~61% annualized return vs ~23.5% for SPY and Calmar ~1.48—strong risk-adjusted gains, though drawdowns can be larger (~41%).
