A rules‑based, tech‑led mix that rotates among QQQ/leveraged tech, volatility hedges, Treasuries (TMF/TMV), gold and managed futures. It uses simple “hot/cold” and trend checks to join rallies and cut risk. Uses leveraged/VIX ETPs—expect big swings.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Rules watch big‑tech funds (QQQ/XLK) and the S&P (SPY). If their “hot/cold” gauge (RSI) is very hot (~80+), it hedges with volatility (VIXM/VXX). If very cold (~30‑), it buys a bounce (QLD) or parks in short‑term bonds (BSV). Otherwise it holds QQQ and mixes in calmer diversifiers (gold IAU, long/short BTAL, vol carry SVXY/VIXM), favoring the least‑volatile. A bond sleeve flips between 3x Treasuries up (TMF), down (TMV), or T‑Bills (BIL/SHV). A small sleeve adds managed‑futures (KMLM/DBMF/CTA).

Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers safer, more resilient returns than the S&P: drawdown 7.28% vs 8.89%, beta ~0.5, Calmar ~1.70, thanks to hedges, managed futures and diversified sleeves—stronger risk-adjusted upside with less risk.
