⚙️ Trading Strategy

Crasher's crash-bounce thesis gated by FRED macro stress signals

Same momentum crash entry as Crasher, but only trades when macro stress is elevated: VIX > 25 OR High-Yield credit spread > 75th percentile. The FRED overlay analysis proved VIX at winning entries is consistently higher than at losing entries.

🎯 Best Suited For

Crypto crash bounces during macro stress — VIX predicts winners (delta +1.82 to +4.30 across altcoins)

"The VIX doesn't lie. When fear screams, the bounce is loudest."

📜 Why This Strategy Works

Macro stress creates correlated selling across all assets. When VIX spikes, institutional de-risking forces crypto down faster — but the bounce is also faster because crypto isn't the source of the fear. Macro fear = better entry quality.

📖 Historical Origin

Origin: Oracle Experiment 1 — FRED macro overlay analysis revealing VIX and credit spreads predict crash-bounce winners

Born February 2026 from Oracle Experiment 1. After building the FRED data pipeline (VIX, yields, credit spreads, unemployment), the macro overlay analysis showed VIX elevation at crash entry predicts significantly better bounce outcomes.
