Daily, it checks a “hot/cold” meter (RSI, 0–100) on key markets:<br>- If semiconductors (SMH), Nasdaq-100 (QQQ), or S&P 500 (SPY) are very cold, it buys 3x bull ETFs (SOXL/TQQQ/UPRO) for a rebound.<br>- If many areas look too hot, it buys VXX (volatility) as a pullback hedge.<br>- Else: hold VT (global stocks) when SPY is in a long uptrend; if not, rotate defensively between staples (XLP) or a bond fund (VBF).
A one‑position, daily strategy: buy 3x equity ETFs after sharp dips, switch to VXX when markets look overheated, otherwise hold global stocks in uptrends or rotate into staples/bonds in downtrends.
Outperforms the S&P: ~32% annualized vs ~20%, with Calmar ~2.78. A disciplined, single-position dip-buy/volatility-hedge approach aiming for stronger upside, though drawdowns can rise in stressed markets.
