About
A rules-based, multi-asset strategy that times tech, Treasuries, the dollar, gold, and volatility. It uses trend, “hot/cold” (RSI), momentum, and volatility signals to add leverage in calm uptrends and rotate to defensive hedges during stress or crashes.
Four sleeves: 1) Vol check: if QQQ is overheated (RSI: 0–100; >80=hot) or jumpy, hedge with VIX funds/defensives; if calm and bonds beat cash, use leveraged QQQ; else hold short‑term Treasuries, staples, gold. 2) Rates: time long Treasuries by trend (price vs avg) and RSI; buy 3× long when up/not overbought; else short or shift to dollar/gold/staples. 3) Momentum: own the 2 strongest of stocks, Treasuries, gold, dollar, commodities, cash. 4) Crash‑catcher: on sharp drops buy volatility; after selloffs may buy leveraged QQQ or stay in safety.
Out-of-sample edge: ~23.9% annualized return vs 22.4% SPY, lower drawdown (~16% vs ~19%), better Calmar, and lower beta (~0.85). A volatility-aware, multi-asset strategy delivering higher upside with stronger downside protection.
