Commodity Rotation

Thesis

Follow the stronger seven-day trend between gold plus Brent oil and copper, aiming to profit as leadership shifts between commodities.

Strategy

• Chooses the stronger side: Each hour, compare the last seven complete UTC days: average gold and Brent oil returns versus copper; ties favor gold and oil. • Rotates when leadership changes: Close the old side before buying the new leader; copper represents industrial metals, and there is no cash-only signal. • Splits entry size: Target 1x allocated USDC, split equally between gold and oil or assigned to copper alone, with Hyperliquid's $10 minimum per order.

Exposure

• Holds: Commodity perpetuals — Gold and Brent oil positions, or copper positions, backed by USDC collateral. • Venue: Hyperliquid — Trade.xyz markets; funds sit as HyperCore USDC, starting with at least $25. • Leverage: Targets 1x — Total exposure targets the allocated USDC balance when entering a new side. • Costs: Trading and funding — Hyperliquid trading fees and ongoing funding payments. • Data: Circuit — Seven days of commodity price history and current trading prices. • On unwind: USDC on HyperCore — Close all gold, Brent oil and copper positions and retain USDC.
