A daily, rules‑based portfolio that rides strong uptrends (often tech‑led) and quickly cuts risk when markets overheat or weaken—parking in T‑bills, Treasuries, or light shorts. Adds oil/commodity and volatility sleeves for diversification and protection.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day it checks two things: trend (is price above a long‑term average?) and “stretch” (RSI, a 0–100 overbought/oversold gauge). If trend is up and not overheated, it leans into growth leaders like Nasdaq (QQQ; sometimes TQQQ/SPXL/SOXL). If weak or overheated, it shifts to cash‑like T‑bills (SHV/SHY), Treasuries (TLT/TMF), light shorts (PSQ/SH), or brief volatility hedges (UVXY/VIXY). Side sleeves trade oil/energy (DBO/UCO/XLE/XOP) and broad commodities (DBC/DBA) only when their trends are healthy.
A daily, rules‑based portfolio that rides strong uptrends (often tech‑led) and quickly cuts risk when markets overheat or weaken—parking in T‑bills, Treasuries, or light shorts. Adds oil/commodity and volatility sleeves for diversification and protection.
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~24.5% annualized returns with ~12.9% max drawdown and Sharpe ~1.26, beating SPY (~19.3%, ~18.8% drawdown, ~1.17). Daily regime-switching, hedges, and commodity sleeves aim for higher upside with less risk.
In an effort to drop the DD, drop the SD, and achieve a slight AR boost, this symphony uses the "2007 @ 2.65 Sharp" symphony in place of "SPY" in DereckN's "SPY FTLT | Hedged".
