A QQQ‑focused, dial‑a‑risk plan: hedge with VIX funds when QQQ looks overheated, add 2x/3x QQQ when it’s beaten up, and otherwise just hold QQQ. Simple heat gauge (0–100) drives the switches; checked daily.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It watches a simple 0–100 “speedometer” of QQQ (Nasdaq‑100 big tech) over ~2 weeks (RSI).<br>- Very high: shift 10–50% into VIXY/UVXY (funds that jump when market fear spikes).<br>- Very low: add QLD/TQQQ (2x/3x QQQ) up to ~50%.<br>- Middle: hold QQQ. Rebalanced daily.
A QQQ‑focused, dial‑a‑risk plan: hedge with VIX funds when QQQ looks overheated, add 2x/3x QQQ when it’s beaten up, and otherwise just hold QQQ. Simple heat gauge (0–100) drives the switches; checked daily.
Out-of-sample edge: about 28.7% annual return vs ~20.4% for the S&P, Sharpe ~1.32, Calmar ~1.25. Nasdaq-100 tilt with volatility hedges and selective leverage aims for higher upside with disciplined risk.
Success is scary. Let's hide from the scary market when we are way up.
