Rules-based switch around JEPQ: prefer income-focused Nasdaq exposure in healthy trends, hide in Treasuries when overheated, and use tactical long/short Nasdaq or cash in choppy/bear markets. Adds a 30% crash-defense sleeve when the Nasdaq is down >20%.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Switches among: JEPQ/JEPI (income), TLT/IEF/SHV (Treasury/cash), QLD (2x long Nasdaq), PSQ/QID (short Nasdaq), SMH/USD (semis). Uses trend (price vs 20/200‑day avg), RSI (0–100 heat), and recent 10–60‑day returns. In uptrends it holds JEPQ unless markets look too hot, then moves to TLT. In weak/bear phases it rotates into bonds, cash, or long/short Nasdaq. If Nasdaq is down >20% in a year, a 30% sleeve gets more defensive.
Rules-based switch around JEPQ: prefer income-focused Nasdaq exposure in healthy trends, hide in Treasuries when overheated, and use tactical long/short Nasdaq or cash in choppy/bear markets. Adds a 30% crash-defense sleeve when the Nasdaq is down >20%.
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets higher upside than the S&P 500: ~26.05% annualized vs 22.20%, plus a crash-defense sleeve for Nasdaq drawdowns >20% and a solid Calmar ~1.22 for favorable risk-adjusted performance.
