Half defensive (UNH/COST or cash), half tactical tech. It buys leveraged Nasdaq in uptrends, but shifts to cash/hedges—or briefly to semis/volatility—after sharp moves, using simple “hot/cold,” drawdown, trend, and bond signals.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It splits your money 50/50:<br>- Meat Shield: Buys UnitedHealth (UNH) and Costco (COST) when they aren’t “too hot” (RSI = a simple 0–100 hot/cold score). If they’re hot or the S&P 500 just plunged, it parks in BIL (cash‑like T‑bills).<br>- Tactical Tech: If the Nasdaq is trending up and bonds look calm, it buys TQQQ (3x Nasdaq). If stress hits, it hedges with 60% BIL + 40% SQQQ (3x inverse Nasdaq), or briefly uses SOXL (3x semis) or UVXY (volatility) after sharp moves.<br>Tickers: SPY=S&P 500, QQQ=Nasdaq‑100, BND=bonds, IEF=7–10y Treas, TLT=20+y Treas, TMF=3x 20+y Treas.
Half defensive (UNH/COST or cash), half tactical tech. It buys leveraged Nasdaq in uptrends, but shifts to cash/hedges—or briefly to semis/volatility—after sharp moves, using simple “hot/cold,” drawdown, trend, and bond signals.
Two-sleeve, rules-based strategy blends a defensive UNH/COST core with a tactical, leveraged Nasdaq engine and hedges. Out-of-sample return ~20%/yr, beta ~0.94, Calmar ~0.64—diversify risk and add risk controls beyond the S&P.
