About
A large, rule-based, diversified rotation strategy across equities, bonds, commodities, and volatility proxies. It uses momentum and trend signals, plus a switchable KMLM/futures-like exposure, to tilt between risk-on and hedged positions while keeping a cash buffer.
What it does for you in simple terms:
- It starts with a cash rule to keep some money safe (cash allocation is adjustable).
- It looks at many ETFs and a few stocks to see which ones look strongest right now using simple price trends and momentum ideas (eg, prices going up, or recent gains large compared to earlier periods).
- It ranks candidates in groups (like a team of players) and picks a few from the top of the list to own in the next window.
- It uses hedges (volatility-related ETFs such as UVXY, VIXM, etc.) when signals suggest more market stress may be coming.
- It occasionally switches in a dedicated “KMLM” sleeve to add a managed-futures style flavor as conditions warrant.
- Signals are mostly mechanical thresholds (price/return momentum, moving averages, and a momentum index like RSI) and simple ranking, not discretionary judgment. Some blocks are designed to favor “safety” (more stable/less correlated assets) while others chase trends in up or down markets.
- The system is split into risk-level buckets (to tailor aggressiveness) and to keep the pool of assets manageable.
Disciplined multi-asset rotation with cash safety and volatility hedges. Captures broad momentum across stocks, bonds, commodities, plus a KMLM sleeve for added upside. OOS: ~48% annualized vs SPY ~19%—more diversified, but drawdowns can be larger.
