1. Make money in the bull market
Long-term trend-following systems are built to make much more than the index once a bull market is established. The catch? They have prolonged drawdowns in corrections — and that's where most people give up. So we don't trade them alone.
2. Protect capital when the market turns
A protective mean-reversion short strategy props the curve up when the market is in trouble — moving in the opposite direction to the S&P 500. That's non-correlation working for you.
3. Combine everything into one machine
Add Panic Hedge, Inflation Hedge and non-correlating mean-reversion long systems, then rebalance. As you combine systems the equity curve gets stronger and the drawdowns get smaller. A win-win, all around.
