Tactical chip‑sector strategy that adapts to volatility. It buys a 2x semiconductor fund when SOXX is washed out, hedges/shorts when too hot, and otherwise toggles between growth and a defensive hedge basket using momentum and risk‑on/off checks. Daily rebalance.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Rebalanced daily. It watches SOXX and first measures volatility. In choppy markets it uses stricter overbought/oversold lines; in calm markets, looser ones. RSI (0–100 gauge of recent moves) drives trades: very low RSI → buy USD (2x long semis); very high RSI → hedge/short (SSG; in calm times use TLT). If no clear signal, it uses momentum and a risk‑on test (Industrials vs Utilities) to switch between growth (QQQ, XLV, XLE, KIE) or a defensive basket (UUP, GLD, inverse ETFs). Key ETFs: SOXX=semis; USD=2x long; SSG=−2x; QQQ=big tech; UUP=$; GLD=gold; TLT=long Treas.
Tactical chip‑sector strategy that adapts to volatility. It buys a 2x semiconductor fund when SOXX is washed out, hedges/shorts when too hot, and otherwise toggles between growth and a defensive hedge basket using momentum and risk‑on/off checks. Daily rebalance.
Out-of-sample, the RSI‑driven semis strategy offers diversified, risk‑managed exposure with ~16.8% annualized return, Sharpe ~0.60 and Calmar ~0.68, plus volatility‑aware hedges and regime rotations that complement the S&P 500 in volatile markets.
