Raincheck Capital's Portfolios on Autopilot: NASDAQ-30, the Raincheck Fund, Cash Flow DRIP, and Long-Only
Raincheck Capital's four Portfolios on Autopilot, the Market Signal behind them, how three use leverage, and how to follow them.
I'm Chris, one of the co-founders of Autopilot. Raincheck Capital runs four Portfolios, and three of them use leverage in some form.
That's not a criticism. It's the single most important thing to understand before following any of them, so it's where I'll start.
One thing first, because we're an SEC-registered investment adviser and I have to say it. Autopilot is the app. The actual investment advice comes from Autopilot Advisers, LLC. If you want the full legal version of anything in here, it's on our disclaimer page.
1) The engine behind all four
Raincheck Capital is an independent Pilot. It creates and manages all four Portfolios.
Each one is steered by what Raincheck calls its Market Signal, its own algorithm for reading whether the market is in an uptrend or a downtrend. The signal decides how much risk each Portfolio takes. When it's strong, they lean in. When it weakens, they pull back.
2) What leverage means here
For those unaware, a leveraged ETF aims to return a multiple of an index's daily move. An inverse one aims to return the opposite of it.
The catch is the word daily. These funds generally reset every day, and over longer stretches that reset can make them lose value even when the market ends up where you expected. In choppy markets it can be brutal. The SEC and FINRA have both published warnings about exactly this.
Raincheck's Portfolios use these funds on purpose, with the signal deciding when. Just know that's the tool.
3) The four Portfolios
NASDAQ-30. The 30 largest holdings of the Nasdaq-100 fund by market value. When the signal is strong, the description says it may swap in a double-leveraged fund instead of the underlying.
Raincheck Fund. The description says it uses leverage. In uptrends it holds a triple-leveraged Nasdaq-100 fund alongside a smaller income slice and cash, opens positions early in a trend, trims as they rise, and closes them when the uptrend ends. It may hold an inverse fund in downtrends.
Cash Flow DRIP. Built for monthly cash income with modest growth, and described as the lowest-risk of the four. It's covered with the other income Portfolios in Is there an app that builds a dividend income Portfolio in my own brokerage?.
Raincheck Long-Only. The plainest expression of the signal. Fully in a triple-leveraged Nasdaq-100 fund during uptrends, fully in a Treasury bill fund during downtrends, with no active management and no inverse funds.
4) A detail worth reading from Raincheck itself
The Cash Flow DRIP description gives followers a practical tip. If you turn on dividend reinvestment at your brokerage, the reinvested shares sit outside the Portfolio and won't follow its future changes. Raincheck suggests reallocating the cash back into the Portfolio instead, where practical.
I respect that. It's the kind of detail most Pilots never mention.
5) The risk, said plainly
I want to be honest with you. A signal that's right about trends still gets whipsawed when the market chops sideways, and leverage makes every whipsaw bigger. Three of these four can swing hard.
Read each description in the app, look at the worst stretch in each record, and size them like the aggressive tools they are.
6) How following works
Pick a Portfolio, connect the brokerage you already use, and allocate money. You give Autopilot Advisers limited authority to send orders to the account you already have. When the Portfolio changes, we send them and your broker fills them. The money stays put.
A flat cash subscription, not a percentage of your balance. Per our Form CRS dated February 2026, Basic Tier has no Base Advisory and Licensing Fee, and Premium Tier is $29.99 to $199.99 a quarter or $99.99 to $699.99 a year. Pilot subscriptions are separate and add on for each Pilot you subscribe to. Because it's a flat dollar amount, it's a bigger share of a small account than a big one, so do the math at your balance.
TLDR: Raincheck Capital runs four Portfolios steered by its Market Signal. Three use leveraged or inverse funds, which reset daily and can lose value over time. Cash Flow DRIP is the income one and the lowest-risk of the four. Understand the tools before you allocate.

Autopilot does not hold client assets. All investments are held at the brokerage firm you select and connect to Autopilot. Your brokerage firm is responsible for trade execution, custody, and reporting. Autopilot is not responsible for your broker-dealer’s services, fees, or execution quality.
Autopilot’s services depend on technology systems, third-party APIs, and internet connectivity. System outages, API disruptions, or connectivity issues may temporarily affect service availability or trade execution timing.
Client account holdings are designed to track the Portfolio you’ve selected, but your actual holdings and performance may differ from the Portfolio due to execution timing, market conditions, brokerage capacity constraints, fractional share availability, and other factors outside Autopilot’s control.
For Portfolios inspired by publicly disclosed trading activity, there may be a delay between when a Pilot executes a trade and when that trade becomes publicly available and is incorporated into the Portfolio. This timing delay may affect the suitability or performance of trades when executed in client accounts.
Third-Party Pilot Portfolios are created and managed by independent third parties who are not affiliated with Autopilot, are not acting as your investment adviser, and owe you no fiduciary duty. Third-Party Pilots receive a share of the fees attributable to their Portfolios, which creates conflicts of interest for them and for Autopilot, and they may trade the same securities their Portfolios hold. Autopilot may convert a Third-Party Pilot Portfolio to an Autopilot Portfolio at any time.
Leveraged and inverse exchange-traded funds are complex products that generally reset daily and can lose value over time, including when the market moves in the direction anticipated; they may not be suitable for most investors.
