A daily buy-the-dip/sell-the-rip strategy. It uses a bonds‑vs‑high‑beta heat check to either buy beaten‑down aggressive ETFs or take a small, cash‑buffered position in one inverse ETF. Uses leveraged funds; very high risk.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day it compares a short-term “heat” score (RSI: high=hot, low=cold) of Treasuries (IEI) vs high‑volatility stocks (SPHB). If Treasuries look stronger, it buys the 3 recent losers from fast‑moving funds (leveraged tech/S&P500/ARKK, China/EM, bonds, chips), favoring steadier ones. If stocks look stronger, it makes a small, cash‑paired bet in 1 bearish fund (inverse ARKK/Nasdaq/Treasuries/Real‑Estate). ~10% stays in cash.

Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.42, Calmar ~5.05, annualized return ~73% vs S&P ~18%. Cross-asset mean-reversion with levered/inverse ETFs; 90% invested, 10% cash. Higher upside, higher drawdowns—risk-tolerant investors.
