The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Daily, rules-based. Step 1: If SPY is above its 200‑day trend, it’s an uptrend; hold US stocks (SPY/QQQ) and, when briefly oversold, sometimes their 3x versions (TQQQ/SPXL). Step 2: If a quick drop or overheating hits, switch to a hedge: gold (GLD) and the US dollar (UUP), sized by recent calmness, or short‑term volatility (UVXY). Step 3: If SPY is below trend, mostly stay in hedges or SHY (T‑bills), with only small tactical bounces. Rebalance daily.
Own stocks in uptrends, hedge fast with gold/US dollar or volatility when markets wobble; in downtrends, stay mostly hedged. Sometimes uses leveraged funds for short, oversold bounces. Rebalanced daily.
Adaptive hedged-bull strategy: ride uptrends in US equities, then hedge stress with gold, USD and volatility; leverage used tactically for bounces. Out-of-sample: ~19.7% annualized, Sharpe ~1.14, beta ~0.42 vs SPY, Calmar ~0.76 (1,480 days).
