A daily, event‑triggered mean‑reversion plan: when gold (via UGL) has a very big up or down day, it buys the day’s biggest loser among a few high‑octane funds (stocks or volatility). Otherwise it sits in T‑bills (BIL).

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day, look at UGL (a fund that moves about 2× the price of gold). If UGL rose more than +4.5% today, buy the single worst performer today among: SVXY (short VIX/short volatility), TQQQ (3× Nasdaq 100), UPRO (3× S&P 500). If UGL fell more than −5.5% today, buy the worst of: UVXY (long VIX/long volatility) and TQQQ. Otherwise, hold BIL (T‑bills/cash‑like). Rebalance daily.
A daily, event‑triggered mean‑reversion plan: when gold (via UGL) has a very big up or down day, it buys the day’s biggest loser among a few high‑octane funds (stocks or volatility). Otherwise it sits in T‑bills (BIL).
