The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It reacts to extremes, then follows the long-term trend.<br>- If stocks look overheated (very high RSI on broad/leadership indexes), it buys UVXY (a volatility “fear” fund) as a hedge.<br>- If they look washed out (very low RSI), it buys 3x bulls (TQQQ or SPXL) for a rebound.<br>- Otherwise it uses the 200‑day trend: in uptrends it holds a bullish basket (TQQQ, SOXL, DRN) when bond tone is positive; in downtrends it mostly holds inverse Nasdaq (PSQ/SQQQ), with occasional QQQ/QLD or BTAL on improving signals.
Rules-based ETF strategy that hedges with UVXY when markets overheat, buys 3x bulls on deep dips, and otherwise follows the 200‑day trend—favoring tech/semis/real estate in uptrends and mostly inverse Nasdaq in downtrends.
Out-of-sample, this rules-based strategy targets ~43.8% annualized return vs ~19.6% for the S&P, using UVXY hedges on overheated markets, 3x bulls on dips, and a 200-day trend filter. Higher drawdowns (~45%) but Calmar ~0.98.
