About this strategy
Dynamic and defensive, the strategy mainly holds leveraged Nasdaq (QLD) and Treasury bonds (IEI, SHV) while it switches to short-term Treasury (SHV) or long-term Treasury (TLT) when the S&P 500 falls below its 200-day average or when Nasdaq is overbought. It protects itself by moving into inverse Nasdaq (QID) or Treasury (TLT) when the market shows oversold or high-drawdown signals, keeping a balanced bond allocation to cushion volatility.
