The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It watches “speed/heat” (RSI) and trend lines (moving averages) on big indexes and assets: SPY (S&P 500), QQQ (Nasdaq‑100), TLT (long US Treasuries), plus oil, gold, and natural‑gas ETFs. If stocks look overheated, it hedges with PSQ/SH (short QQQ/S&P) or VIXY/UVXY. If they look washed‑out, it buys growth (QQQ/XLK). It also rotates in/out of Treasuries (TMF/TMV) and commodities (DBC/DBO/DBA). If nothing’s attractive, it holds T‑bills SHV/BIL. Rebalanced daily.

Adaptive multi-asset strategy delivering superior risk-adjusted returns vs SPY: OOS Sharpe ~1.30, Calmar ~2.05, max drawdown ~7.8% vs ~18.8%, beta ~0.40. Diversified, regime-driven, protects capital while seeking upside.
From a set of symphs designed by DereckN and Anansi, a correlation matrix was constructed, from which a covariance matrix was derived. The Markowitz mean-variance optimization method was then utilized in order to arrive at allocations present. V2: Added in Four Corners Hedged
