A fast, rules-based “regime switcher.” It rides tech booms with leveraged ETFs, but quickly flips to shorts/volatility/bonds when signals turn. Uses KMLM (managed futures) as a macro gauge. Very aggressive; high turnover and slippage; best in tax-advantaged accounts.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It checks if the stock market is trending up (SPY above its 200‑day average). If yes, it rides strong tech/semis using leveraged funds (like 3x Nasdaq). If markets look overheated or weak, it flips to hedges: inverse tech, volatility (UVXY), Treasuries, or cash. A KMLM vs XLK check guides risk‑on vs defense.<br>It rebalances daily and often rotates into the “hottest” picks; when signals warn, it quickly cuts risk.

Dynamic regime-switching strategy. A tactical overlay to SPY that captures tech uptrends with leverage and hedges during stress periods; offers diversification and tail-risk control in tax-advantaged accounts. OOS: -8.10%/yr; 8.76% drawdown vs SPY 3.06%.
Degens beware: realistic slippage is more like 20-25 bps with daily trades. Solid option for tax-advantaged retirement accounts, but you probably won't beat buying and holding SPY after taxes otherwise. --- Sign up for a trading pass and use code E3eRP-v-TRADE for 25% off for life.
