About
A daily-rebalanced, rule-driven momentum strategy across many ETFs (including leveraged and inverse bets) organized into multiple themes. It uses momentum and trend signals (cumulative returns, moving averages, RSI-style checks) to pick and equally weight top assets within each theme, with risk-off options ready to deploy via bear/defensive legs. The result is a high-octane, diversified, levered-satellite portfolio rather than a simple long-only approach.
What you’re looking at is a rule-driven portfolio builder that runs every day. It looks at a large set of funds and leveraged ETFs (for example QQQ, TQQQ, SOXL, SOXS, UVXY, VIXY, TMF, TMV, SPXL, SQQQ, BIL, GLD, IEF, EEM, EWZ, LABU, LABD, etc.). It groups them into themes (Bull, Bear, Defense, Tech, Biotech, etc.) and then uses a mix of momentum and trend signals to pick the top assets within each group. Momentum signals include how much an asset has gained over windows like 5, 10, 20, or 60 days (cumulative return) and where the price sits relative to a moving average. Trend strength is sometimes compared across assets (relative strength, RSI-like readings). When a group’s rules favor a particular asset, that asset is added to the portfolio with a fixed share (often an equal 100% weight within the sub-group, i.e., equal-weight among selected assets). The strategy rebalances daily, so if momentum shifts, the holdings can rotate. Because it uses leveraged and inverse ETFs, the strategy is more aggressive and sensitive to short-term moves, not a typical long-only, buy-and-hold approach. It also uses risk-off components (e.g., SQQQ, UVXY, TMV) to protect when signals indicate a downturn. In short: it’s a complex, rule-based, momentum-driven, multi-asset, leveraged portfolio that tries to ride trends but also hedges with bear/defensive legs when conditions worsen.
Important to know: - Leverage/inverse vehicles magnify moves and can lead to large drawdowns in choppy markets. - The universe includes many exotic ETFs you may not recognize beyond AAPL/GOOG/TSLA. - This is designed for active management rather than a simple buy-and-hold.
Seeking higher upside than the S&P 500? This rule-based, momentum-driven, multi-asset strategy targets stronger out-of-sample returns (about 23% annualized vs 19.8% for SPY), with hedges and daily rebalancing. Higher volatility, bigger gains.
