About this strategy
Dynamic and disciplined, the strategy mainly holds leveraged Nasdaq (QLD) and, when the market shows stress, it pivots to short-sized or bond positions such as short-term bonds (BSV) or short-S&P (SDS). It switches into crypto-linked (BITI) or energy (UGL) when short-term trends or volatility signals appear, and it protects itself by moving into defensive assets like short-silver (SOXS) or short-S&P (SHY) when drawdowns exceed 6% or VIX rises sharply.
