A daily, QQQ‑driven, high‑risk strategy. When QQQ looks overheated it shifts to VIXY (volatility). When it looks washed out it goes 3× long tech (TQQQ/TECL). Otherwise it trend‑follows with QLD/QQQ/PSQ based on moving averages.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day it watches QQQ (Nasdaq‑100).<br>1) If QQQ looks very “hot” by RSI—a 0–100 gauge of recent buying—on any of several lookbacks, it moves to VIXY (a volatility fund that jumps when markets drop).<br>2) If QQQ looks very “cold” (RSI low), it buys 3× tech bulls (TQQQ, TECL).<br>3) Otherwise it follows trend: above 150‑day average price → QLD (2×); above 30‑day average price → QQQ; else PSQ (inverse).
A daily, QQQ‑driven, high‑risk strategy. When QQQ looks overheated it shifts to VIXY (volatility). When it looks washed out it goes 3× long tech (TQQQ/TECL). Otherwise it trend‑follows with QLD/QQQ/PSQ based on moving averages.
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.15 vs SPY ~1.10; OOS annualized return ~55% vs SPY ~18%; Calmar ~2.22 signals strong downside control for growth. Tech/Nasdaq tilt with volatility hedge; higher drawdown and beta imply higher risk.
