The hypothesis

Why this system exists.

Regime classification is a supervised learning problem. Given enough features — price momentum, volatility structure, breadth, credit conditions — an ML model can classify the current market state more accurately than any single indicator. Once you have a reliable real-time classification, rotation between a long risk asset (TQQQ), a short risk asset (SQQQ), and a hedge (GLD) captures the highest expected return in each state while providing productive defense during uncertainty.

How it works

3 components working together.

COMPONENT 01

ML Regime Classifier

Real-time classification of market state as risk-on, risk-off, or uncertain. The model reprocesses every session and adjusts exposure accordingly.

COMPONENT 02

Multi-Strategy Architecture

Multiple uncorrelated substrategies deployed based on the current regime. They do not all fail at the same time.

COMPONENT 03

Active Gold Hedge

During risk-off periods, the system rotates into gold instead of parking in cash. Productive defense rather than dead capital.

Common questions

FAQ.

Why is VoltAIc only offered through Collective2?

VoltAIc trades more often and with tighter timing than a self-directed system. Manual execution would miss fills and degrade the strategy. Collective2 handles the execution layer, routes the signals to your linked brokerage, and keeps the timing intact. It is the only way we will distribute this system.

How is this different from TrendLock and SwingHunter?

TrendLock and SwingHunter are signal services — you get an email and execute the trade yourself in any broker. VoltAIc is a managed algorithm. You open a Collective2 account, link your broker, subscribe to VoltAIc, and the strategy trades for you automatically. You do not see individual signals by email and you do not place individual trades. Different product, different audience.

Which brokers are supported?

Collective2 supports Interactive Brokers, TradeStation, Tradier, and several others through its AutoTrade integration. You open a Collective2 account, link your existing brokerage, then subscribe to VoltAIc. The full current list is on the Collective2 site.

Can I run VoltAIc alongside TrendLock or SwingHunter?

Yes. VoltAIc uses its own Collective2-linked account. TrendLock and SwingHunter signals arrive by email and you execute those in a separate brokerage or sub-account. Most subscribers who run all three keep VoltAIc in its own account so the automated trades cannot collide with manual ones.

How do I pause or stop the subscription?

Through Collective2, not through Pollinate. You can unsubscribe from the VoltAIc strategy on Collective2 at any time. Auto-execution stops immediately on the next session. Pollinate does not bill you directly for VoltAIc — the $197/mo subscription fee is charged and managed by Collective2.

Do I get any emails at all?

No trade-by-trade emails. Since VoltAIc trades for you, there is no action for you to take on each signal. You will see every trade on your Collective2 dashboard in real time, and on your own brokerage statements. Occasional product updates from Pollinate may come to the email on file.

How does the ML classifier actually work?

The model takes a window of recent market features — price momentum across timeframes, volatility structure, breadth, credit and VIX term state — and outputs a probability for each of three states: risk-on, risk-off, uncertain. The classifier reprocesses every session. The current state determines which of TQQQ, SQQQ, or GLD the system holds. Details are covered on the How It Works page.

Important: Backtests are historical simulations. They do not represent actual trading and have inherent limitations. Live results are real-time execution. Past performance, whether backtested or live, is not indicative of future results. Trading involves substantial risk of loss. Pollinate Trading is not a registered investment advisor.
