by Composer Technologies · via Composer
Daily tactical strategy that rotates among leveraged stock ETFs, volatility (UVXY), T‑bills, or shorting tech. It buys volatility when markets look overheated, buys 3× bulls when very weak, and otherwise follows a 200‑day trend to choose risk‑on or risk‑off. Very high risk.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day it checks short‑term momentum (RSI) on broad funds: SPY (S&P 500), IOO (global megacaps), TQQQ (Nasdaq‑100), VTV (value), XLF (financials), VOX (communications).<br>- If any look very overbought, buy UVXY (volatility) + some BTAL (defensive).<br>- If very oversold, buy 3× bull funds (TQQQ or UPRO).<br>- Else use trend: if SPY > 200‑day and volatility is easing (VIXY down), own SPXL/TECL/TQQQ; if not, hold BIL. If trend is down, mostly short QQQ (SQQQ/PSQ), with occasional flips long on strong signals.
Daily tactical strategy that rotates among leveraged stock ETFs, volatility (UVXY), T‑bills, or shorting tech. It buys volatility when markets look overheated, buys 3× bulls when very weak, and otherwise follows a 200‑day trend to choose risk‑on or risk‑off. Very high risk.
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~35% annualized returns vs ~17% for the S&P, using adaptive risk-on/off and volatility timing to capture upside across regimes. Higher risk and larger drawdowns, but stronger growth potential.
