A rules‑based, all‑weather allocator. Buys leveraged tech in uptrends or on deep dips, then quickly shifts to T‑bills, volatility hedges, anti‑beta, or shorts when markets look “too hot.” Adds bonds, gold and managed futures (KMLM) to smooth the ride. High risk.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It’s a daily “go‑offense or play‑defense” system. Offense = 3x tech/S&P funds (TQQQ/TECL/SPXL) when uptrends or deep dips appear. Defense = T‑bills (BIL/SHV), fear hedges (VIXY/VIXM), anti‑beta (BTAL), or even shorts when markets look too hot or trend breaks. Signals: RSI (0–100 heat gauge: >~80 = too hot, <~30 = washed out), 200‑day trend, and volatility/drawdown guards. It also blends bonds (TMF/TMV), gold, and managed futures (KMLM) for balance.
A rules‑based, all‑weather allocator. Buys leveraged tech in uptrends or on deep dips, then quickly shifts to T‑bills, volatility hedges, anti‑beta, or shorts when markets look “too hot.” Adds bonds, gold and managed futures (KMLM) to smooth the ride. High risk.
Out-of-sample: ~35% annualized return, Calmar ~2.0, beta ~0.40; diversifies beyond the S&P 500 with strong risk-adjusted upside via adaptive offense/defense and multi-asset hedges. Drawdowns can be larger in stress.
