Leverages UPRO (3x S&P 500) and TQQQ (3x Nasdaq 100) in favorable markets, buys dips carefully, and may pair with TMF (3x Treasuries). When risk rises, shifts to BIL (T‑Bills) and selective hedges (e.g., SQQQ, TBT/TMV, USDU). Rebalanced daily.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Goal: use leverage in uptrends, protect in downtrends.<br>Switch: if broad bonds (BND) have risen recently → Risk ON; else → Risk OFF.<br>Risk ON: rotate between UPRO (3x S&P 500) and TQQQ (3x Nasdaq 100), lean in when markets are calm, buy ~5% weekly dips (but avoid chasing big one‑day pops), and sometimes add TMF (3x long Treasuries).<br>Risk OFF: move to BIL (T‑Bills) and, at times, hedges like SQQQ (short Nasdaq), TBT/TMV (short long Treasuries) or USDU (strong USD). Daily rebalance.
Leverages UPRO (3x S&P 500) and TQQQ (3x Nasdaq 100) in favorable markets, buys dips carefully, and may pair with TMF (3x Treasuries). When risk rises, shifts to BIL (T‑Bills) and selective hedges (e.g., SQQQ, TBT/TMV, USDU). Rebalanced daily.
High-upside, risk-managed: out-of-sample annualized return ~32% vs S&P ~21%, enabled by 3x levered ETFs and dynamic hedges. Strong upside in uptrends with disciplined risk controls; but anticipate larger drawdowns in downturns (~49%).
used 60d BND/BIL to go Risk on/ Risk off (ty HinnomTx and jss040292). fund surfing during Risk on. got rid of CTA use during risk off so we could further back test. i like the idea of CTA use (KMLM, DBMF, CTA) but severly limits backtesting. shorting treasury bonds protects against rising interest rates in 2018, 2022. best to benchmark this against "buy and hold" of the underlying 3x leveraged assets like SOXL/TQQQ/UPRO/TECL of the same time period.
