A fast, tactical strategy that chases strong tech runs with leveraged ETFs, buys dips when bonds confirm, and hedges overheated markets with VIX/dollar or goes defensive (SCHD). It also rotates bonds/commodities by trend and trades ARK/Bitcoin tactically.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It watches a few simple gauges: stocks too hot or too cold (RSI), short‑term momentum, and what bonds are doing. If tech is strong and trends are up, it uses turbocharged tech funds; if markets look overheated, it hedges with VIX/dollar or goes defensive (SCHD/cash). Bonds and commodities are rotated by trend. It also flips ARK and Bitcoin long/short based on recent moves. Uses leveraged funds—expect big swings.

Out-of-sample edge: 21.74% annualized return vs SPY’s 20.70%, Calmar 0.815, with hedged, diversified risk (tech leadership, volatility hedges, bonds/defense). Strong upside with disciplined risk vs the S&P 500.
