About this strategy
Dynamic and responsive, the strategy mainly holds a mix of short-VIX (SVXY) and long-VIX (VIXM) when VIXM's recent return outpaces VIXY's, signaling a shift toward volatility play. When VIXM lags, it reverts to an equal-weight blend of SVXY, BTAL, VIXM and SCHD, keeping a broad-market and dividend focus while protecting against sudden volatility spikes.
