This trading strategy will ensure that you will always be in the market. Sometimes, the model requires you to be on the side line due to conflicted signals. Some of the ETFs are 1X, 2X or 3X leverage. Here are some of the list: volatility (XIV/VIIX), sp500 (SPY/SH), us dollar (UUP/UDN), Russell 2000 (IWM/RWM), gold (DGL/GLL), oil (UCO/SCO), and etc...
