The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Rules watch trend and “heat” of markets. If the S&P 500 is rising (price above its long‑term average), the plan buys aggressive stock funds (3x SPXL/TQQQ/TECL) unless an overheat gauge (RSI: a 0–100 speed‑of‑gains score) flashes high—then it parks in cash‑like Treasuries or gold. If trends weaken, it can hedge or go short, and it shifts into bond and commodity funds when those trends look strong. It adds VIX hedges in euphoria and sells volatility only when calm. Very high risk.
Rule-based, tactical portfolio that rides stock uptrends with leveraged funds, shifts to cash/gold when overheated, hedges or shorts in downtrends, and rotates into bonds and commodities when they trend. Uses VIX hedges; high risk due to 3x and volatility ETFs.
Out-of-sample edge: smaller drawdowns (~12% vs SPY ~18.8%), stronger risk-adjusted performance (oos Sharpe ~1.09; Calmar ~1.47) with trend hedges and diversifiers. Growth potential with downside protection vs SPY.
