Daily tactical: buy 3× stock ETFs after fast drops (QQQ→TQQQ, SPY→UPRO), buy a VIX ETF after sharp run-ups (UVXY), otherwise sit in a defensive choice (XLP or VBF). Single holding at a time. High risk and whipsaw prone.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day it checks how stretched the market’s been over ~10 days. If Nasdaq-100 looks washed out, buy TQQQ (leveraged Nasdaq). If it looks very hot, buy UVXY (a VIX fund that jumps when stocks drop). Else test the S&P 500: oversold → UPRO; overbought → UVXY. If neither is extreme, park in XLP (consumer staples) or VBF (bond fund), choosing the one that’s more beaten down. 100% in one holding, rechecked daily. Very risky.
Daily tactical: buy 3× stock ETFs after fast drops (QQQ→TQQQ, SPY→UPRO), buy a VIX ETF after sharp run-ups (UVXY), otherwise sit in a defensive choice (XLP or VBF). Single holding at a time. High risk and whipsaw prone.
Out-of-sample, this tactical, single-asset strategy delivers competitive risk-adjusted returns vs the S&P 500: ~21.8% annualized vs ~23.1% SPY, Calmar ~0.96, 566-day test. It uses leverage to capture rebounds and hedges to manage risk.
