/ How it works /
The rules, and where they came from.
This is not an original strategy. It is a copy of a fund that already existed, adapted to what a long-only on-chain protocol can actually do.
Where the rules come from
The strategy is lifted from the Inverse Cramer Tracker ETF prospectus (SJIM, Northern Lights Fund Trust IV, February 2023). Its two core rules are quoted almost verbatim in the registry contract:
Should Cramer recommend buying any of the securities in the Fund's portfolio, the Fund will dispose of those holdings. Should Cramer recommend selling any of the securities in the Fund's portfolio, the Fund will keep those holdings.
SJIM also dropped names that went stale with no further commentary, held 20 to 50 positions, and expected high turnover. All three are reproduced here.
What this protocol cannot do
SJIM could express the full inverse because it could sell short. This protocol cannot. It buys spot tokenized shares in order to hand them to holders, so only half of Cramer's signal surface is actionable.
| Cramer | SJIM | Here |
|---|---|---|
| Negative | Stays long | Buys it |
| Positive | Shorts it | Rejected on-chain |
| Neutral | No position | Rejected |
That rejection is enforced by the contract, not by the curator's discipline. If the basket could drift into names Cramer likes, putting it on-chain would buy nothing.
The basket is not fixed
This is dynamic and will be updated with Cramer's (mis)recommendations. Every time he changes his mind on a name, the basket is rewritten and the next cycle buys the new list.
A position only survives while his most recent call on it stays negative. The moment he turns positive, the contract stops the name entering the basket at all.
Roadmap
A tab that automatically sells and buys the assets he's (mis)recommending, taking both sides rather than only the half a long-only protocol can express today.
