The idea
Bets on US companies mining critical minerals China controls, buying momentum and selling during sector downturns.
Design
How it works
Focuses on six US mining companies building Western supply chains
Automatically moves to cash when the sector weakens overall
Re-enters trades based on price momentum strength
Holds positions through uptrends, exits during sector-wide declines
Conditions
Where it works, and where it doesn't
Every strategy is built for a particular kind of market. These are the conditions this one is designed around — and the ones it is not.
Built for
- When critical mineral prices are rising steadily over weeks or months
- When US government support for domestic mining stays strong
- When global demand for minerals (AI, EVs, defense) keeps growing
- When the mining sector as a whole is performing well
Not built for
- When mineral prices crash suddenly due to economic slowdown or recession
- When China unexpectedly eases export restrictions or floods the market
- When the entire mining sector falls together — bot moves to cash but late
- When prices bounce sideways for months with no clear direction
