TradingKey Timing Strategy - SPDR S&P 500 ETF
This is a long-only strategy where positions are determined entirely by the TK Alpha Gauge. The strategy scales long exposure proportionally based on positive gauge readings and maintains a flat position (zero lots) when the gauge is negative. Performance metrics are detailed below.
Alpha Gauge
The TK Alpha Gauge is a proprietary, comprehensive daily updated indicator developed by Tradingkey that reflects our outlook on specific financial instruments. Utilizing a long-proven AI framework, the index analyzes hundreds of proprietary price-volume, fundamental, and alternative data predictors. Values range from -100 to 100. Negative values signify a bearish (pessimistic) outlook, while positive values indicate a bullish (optimistic) stance. The further the value from zero, the stronger the quantitative signal. It provides quantitative insight into directional forecasts.
