Daily, this split portfolio (≈85% tactical, 15% trend) buys UVXY when markets look overheated, TQQQ when QQQ looks washed out, or T‑bills after sharp drops/rate shocks. The small trend sleeve toggles between QQQ and TQQQ using multiple moving averages.
Description from Composer

Each rule is quoted word for word from the strategy's own documents.
“85% tactical: If short‑term “heat” (RSI) in big market slices (value, tech, comms, energy, Nasdaq) is very high, buy UVXY”
“15% trend: Four moving‑average tests on QQQ each choose QQQ (safer) or TQQQ (riskier)”
“buy UVXY (a fund that jumps when fear/volatility spikes)”
“park in T‑bills (BIL)”
“buy TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) for a rebound”
