A rules-based, gold-only strategy. When gold drops sharply or trends up, it uses a 3x leveraged gold note (SHNY); otherwise it holds regular gold (GLD). Seeks bigger moves but can be very volatile and is not diversified.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It looks at how gold has moved lately using GLD (a large fund that tracks gold).<br>• If GLD fell hard recently (oversold), buy SHNY, a note that aims for about 3x gold’s daily move.<br>• Else if GLD has been rising over ~2 weeks, buy SHNY to ride the trend.<br>• Otherwise, hold GLD.<br>Only one is held at a time. This can be very volatile and risky due to leverage and daily reset in SHNY.
A rules-based, gold-only strategy. When gold drops sharply or trends up, it uses a 3x leveraged gold note (SHNY); otherwise it holds regular gold (GLD). Seeks bigger moves but can be very volatile and is not diversified.
Out-of-sample annualized return ~32% vs S&P ~18%, with low beta (~0.31) for diversification. Calmar ~0.56, positive risk-adjusted returns despite larger drawdowns; leveraged gold exposure aims for upside in inflationary regimes.
