About
A daily, mostly‑cash tactic that flips between one leveraged bull or bear ETF using a simple bond‑vs‑stock momentum check, then buys the recent laggard to play a short‑term rebound. Only ~27% is invested, but the pick is often 2–3x leveraged.
Each day it keeps ~73% in cash and uses ~27% for one high‑octane ETF pick.
It compares 7‑day momentum of IEI (US Treasuries; safety) vs SPHB (high‑volatility stocks; risk).
If IEI is stronger, it buys 1 bullish leveraged fund; otherwise 1 bearish/inverse fund.
It then chooses the one that fell most over ~4 days, aiming for a bounce.
High-conviction, cash-backed strategy: ~27% active exposure, ~73% cash, one levered pick daily. Out-of-sample return ~71% vs S&P ~23%, solid risk-adjusted payoff (Calmar ~1.69) despite larger drawdowns. Tactical rotation with outsized upside.
