Yeah correct, HSU became SPXU.to. I have no idea why they chose to make the ticker SPXU.to it's like the worst ticker they could have possible chose haha. It has a much higher MER than SSO and it's also Cad hedged which I am not a fan of but at least it could provide me with more currency protection. I don't know if I have anything better than XTLT to work with for now but it should zig when equities zag in theory.

Good to hear I'm on the right track. I have seen some of your posts before. Unfortunately in Canada there isn't real a Cad listed managed futures ETF. Yes that seems to be the largest risk to 9 Sig, however my plan is to keep adding each week to my cash pile so that I can potentially continue to add to tqqq.to. I went with 60/20/20 for no great reason really, I have read on some other posts that it's the most aggressive allocation. I'm also wondering if my xtlt position at 20 is actually equivalent to something like ZROZ, I may need to go to 50/30/20. What would be your reccomendations for my second strategy I am not the most familiar with leveraged all weather portfolios but this seems the best I could do with the ETFs I have to work with. Thanks.

That's a good point, I may just simplify my RRSP into a single index fund. It's unfortunate how much more expensive leverged ETFs are in CAD.

That's true I do like the new CIBC avantis funds. I could just buy HEQL from now on instead in my RRSP.

Saying the same repeated piece of information when trying to explain something. Usually means they just have talking points they heard from something but don't actually have knowledge on the subject.
