Daily Algorithmic ETF Trading Signals

Súgradh provides daily and weekly ETF trading signals generated entirely by coded algorithms — no discretionary trades, no opinions. Strategies use wavelet analysis and momentum indicators to time entries and exits across a curated set of ETFs. All portfolios are long-only and compatible with IRA, cash, and margin accounts. Signals land in your inbox before market open.


How Our Wavelet & Momentum Algorithms Work

Trades are long only keeping things simple and tradeable in IRA, cash or margin accounts.

Wavelet analysis, which is central to sugradh.com’s approach, has a flavor of “find where something crosses a threshold” — the wavelet transform decomposes a signal into frequency bands at different time scales, and trading signals emerge when energy concentrations appear in specific bands. The multi-resolution nature of wavelets makes them particularly well suited to financial time series, which have structure at multiple scales simultaneously: intraday noise, daily momentum, weekly mean reversion, monthly trend.

The Sectors portfolio weights various sectors of the economy.

The Stories portfolio selects interesting momentum areas with sustained advances.

The Plays portfolio uses leveraged bets on selected ETFs with strong momentum.

The Sleep Well portfolio uses a momentum type indicator for selection with minimum variance allocation to generate weekly trading positions and is intended to be traded at the open on the first trading day of the week.

The Insomniac portfolio is simply the same as Sleep Well but using some leveraged ETFs.

The use of leveraged and un-leveraged ETFs are targeted for being cost-effective, highly liquid, and easily accessible across most brokerage platforms. All positions and adjustments are taken at the open.


What Subscribers Receive Before Each Session

Prior to the daily trading session, an email detailing the allocation the portfolios will transition to at the next open.

The varied portfolios here serve as a means of organizing and managing diverse allocations. By assigning a specific financial sum to a portfolio, the expectation is that the collective underlying strategies within the portfolio will demonstrate enhanced effectiveness in mitigating risk and limiting drawdowns\

The SleepWell portfolio represents a hybrid strategy that merges momentum selection with minimum variance allocation.

A prudent approach would commence with the SleepWell portfolio, as it offers a favorable return with minimal risk. Subsequently, a portion of the funds can be allocated to the Insomniac and Playground portfolios as deemed appropriate.

Strategies playing to make money

Description

This portfolio employs a strategic approach to buying and selling positions in an attempt to outperform a simple buy-and-hold strategy. It presents a viable alternative and complement to long-term position investors, offering favorable exposure characteristics.

The portfolio does not allocate its entire allocation to the market at all times but selectively acquires and sells positions on a daily basis. At times, only one or two positions may be held, but this can rapidly increase if favorable market conditions arise.

Subsequently, this strategy incorporates a small collection of four complementary strategies for acquiring index-related equities and selecting leveraged exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

The following ETFs are used:

ETF Ticker Leverage
Direxion Daily S&P Biotech Bull 3X ETF LABU 3x
Invesco QQQ Trust QQQ 1x
ProShares Ultra QQQ QLD 2x
ProShares UltraPro QQQ TQQQ 3x
Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X ETF SOXL 3x
Direxion Daily S&P500 Bull 3X ETF SPXL 3x
ProShares Ultra S&P500 SSO 2x
ProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures SVXY -0.5x
Direxion Daily Technology Bull 3X ETF TECL 3x
Direxion Daily 20+ Yr Trsy Bull 3X ETF TMF 3x
Direxion Daily Small Cap Bull 3X ETF TNA 3x
Invesco DB US Dollar Bullish UUP 1x
ProShares Ultra 20+ Year Treasury UBT 2x
ProShares VIX Short-Term Futures VIXY 1.5x

The graph above represents the portfolio growth in recent history.

In the Details section below, the Assets tab shows the range that each asset’s allocation can achieve. This allocation can change on a monthly basis as the portfolio adjusts itself. On the Trades tab is the historic trading record. Note though, the profit column indicates the profit to that one trade and not the portfolio as a whole.

Total position allocation is set to 90.00% of account

2024 Retrospective

Looking back at the year

The portfolios did relatively well for 2024. Both SleepWell and Insomniac both performed as expected from their past returns. The Playground suffered some trouble keeping up in the later half of the year. It still has had a decent year but compared to the S&P 500(24.01%) and NASDAQ(30.78%) it underperformed on raw returns. However drawdowns were more contained and manageable.
