The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
RSI is a short-term heat meter (0=cold, 100=hot). On rips (RSI very hot, ~80+), it hedges/shorts using volatility funds like UVXY (these often jump when stocks drop). On dips (RSI ~25–30) and if the long trend is up (SPY > 200‑day), it buys 3× tech/Nasdaq (TECL, TQQQ, SOXL). If trend is down it holds T‑Bills (BIL/SHV) or Treasuries (TLT/TMF) and sometimes inverse ETFs. A KMLM check (managed‑futures trend) tilts bull vs bear. Smaller sleeves trade EM and gold. Daily rebalance. Very high risk.
Daily, rules-based swing strategy: buys 3× tech/Nasdaq on dips when the long-term trend is up; hedges with volatility/inverse ETFs on rips; parks in cash/bonds when trend is weak. Uses KMLM (managed futures) as a cross-asset signal; also trades EM and gold.
Out-of-sample edge: ~36% annualized return vs SPY ~24%, Calmar ~3.1, near-zero beta, and diversified hedges (UVXY, inverses, bonds, EM, gold). Higher upside with larger but manageable drawdowns.
