About
A very aggressive daily market-timing strategy that mostly swings between leveraged tech bets, bearish Nasdaq protection, and volatility trades based on whether the market looks oversold, overbought, strong, or stressed.
This strategy checks the market every day and usually puts everything into just one aggressive fund.
In healthy markets, it mainly decides whether to own a turbo-charged tech fund (TQQQ/SOXL/UPRO) or a defensive bet that profits when the Nasdaq falls (PSQ), with volatility funds used when markets look overheated or panicky.
If a long-term biotech trend turns weak, it switches to a separate high-risk rebound strategy across leveraged stock, bond, and inverse funds.
Out-of-sample edge: 33.1% annualized return vs 20.3% for the S&P, powered by aggressive tech leverage and tactical hedges. Higher upside, but higher risk (max drawdown ~37.6%, beta ~1.54). Calmar ~0.88 signals solid risk-adjusted capture.
