Daily long/short oil system with a safety brake, macro risk-on/off checks, and oil-specific trend tests. It buys USO/USL when conditions are healthy, shorts oil via SCO when they’re not, or parks in a diversified basket when signals are mixed.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It’s a daily, rules-based oil trader.<br>- First, a safety brake checks if markets are panicky or overheated using a simple “is price stretched” gauge (RSI). If so, it parks in Treasuries (IEF/TLT).<br>- Next, it decides risk‑on or risk‑off by comparing broad stocks vs low‑vol stocks, cyclicals vs defensives, and dollar/yen.<br>- If risk‑on and oil’s trend is healthy, it buys oil (USO/USL—oil ETFs). If risk‑off/strong USD, it shorts oil (SCO—an ETF that rises when oil falls).<br>- If signals disagree, it holds a diversified mix (gold, Treasuries, tech, commodities, convertibles).
Daily long/short oil system with a safety brake, macro risk-on/off checks, and oil-specific trend tests. It buys USO/USL when conditions are healthy, shorts oil via SCO when they’re not, or parks in a diversified basket when signals are mixed.
Macro-aware, rules-based oil strategy with multi-layer risk checks and oil-specific signals. Designed for diversification and potential hedge to the S&P, with low/negative beta. Note: out-of-sample risk-adjusted performance trails the S&P; may suit as a hedging sleeve, not core.
Update to the original wild west oil trading formula with better parity switches that use a nested risk on / risk off filter before determining long/short oil.
