The idea

Bets on Tesla and a tech fund when both are rising, but bails to safe bonds if losses hit a limit.

Elon Bets (Risk Protected) goes long Tesla and SPCX only when the stock and the broader market are trending up together, capturing the big moves in two of the market's most volatile growth names. When a drawdown hits its threshold it exits to T-Bills automatically and waits for a confirmed recovery in both before re-entering — upside participation without the round trip.

Design

How it works

  1. Buys Tesla and SPCX (a tech-heavy fund) when prices are climbing together

  2. Automatically switches to T-Bills (super safe bonds) if losses get too big

  3. Waits for both stocks to confirm they're rising again before jumping back in

  4. Aims to catch big gains while protecting you from getting wiped out

The Simulation Lab

Ten bad markets, before your money is in one.

Almost anything looks good in a rising market. That is not a test. So we put the plans listed here through the same ten bad markets, and this one has been through them. They are stretches of real market history, with names and dates: the 2022 slump, the COVID crash, a year that went nowhere. We picked them before this plan existed.

Two of them are below. Each one shows our drawing of what that market looked like, and the rules this plan follows when a market like it turns up. None of this is a score. What actually happened to the plan is in your dashboard, not on this page.

When markets fall

The COVID Crash

A third of the market’s value gone in a month — most of it overnight.

our model of the S&P 500 around Feb–Mar 2020falls about 34% at its worst, then ends about 14% below where it begana shape, not a scale · not this plan

How we run it
Real trading days

The fastest fall of that size on record: 23 trading days from an all-time high to the bottom. Much of it happened overnight — big companies opened 8-12% below where they had closed the day before.

The rules this plan follows here

  1. 1
    What it holds

    4 companies.

  2. 2
    When it sells

    One of them drops 20% to 25% below the price it was bought at.

  3. 3
    What it does

    It sells that one. The rest carry on.

On nine days here, the market opened far below where it closed the day before.

An order set to sell at 20% to 25% down can end up selling far below that. If the market opens below that price, there is no chance to sell at it. That is what this market is here to show, and why we keep it in the set.

When markets go nowhere

The Wild Swings of Late 2022

Violent rallies and sharp drops, ending roughly flat.

Essentially flat over six months, but by way of a 17% summer rally, a 17% autumn decline, and a 14% year-end rally. The destination was nowhere; the journey was violent.

No overnight drops in this market.

A market that ends where it started still charges you for every trade made inside it. This is where the cost of trading adds up fastest. That is why it sits in the set right next to the crash.

The Christmas 2018 Scare

A sudden drop, then a full recovery within months.

These ten are the whole set. We picked them for the damage they did — the fastest crash on record, a year that went nowhere, a grind that punished every rally — not for how they make anything look.

8 of these 10 can run on the real trading days of the time they name. We model the other 2 — The Bull Run of 2016–17 and The Year That Went Nowhere. A plan needs a stretch of history to warm up on before a test starts, and our price data does not go back far enough to give these that. So we built stand-ins that behave like those years, rather than replays of them. A modelled market is not a forecast, and it is not what would have happened. The shapes drawn above are our models of those markets — never this plan — and they have no scale. The dates and index moves next to each one are the real figures for the period it is modelled on. Nothing on this page says how any plan did in these tests.
