Daily, rules‑driven Nasdaq strategy that buys dips with QQQ/TQQQ and flips to PSQ/SQQQ when things get overheated or fearful, using simple “heat” gauges (RSI) plus cross‑checks from bonds, semis, volatility, the dollar, and commodities.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It mainly trades the Nasdaq‑100 via QQQ, its 3x bull (TQQQ) and bear (SQQQ), or a 1x short (PSQ). It “buys the dip” when RSI (a heat meter of recent ups vs downs: low=cold, high=hot) says risk looks cheap, and hedges/shorts when markets are hot or fear spikes. It also reads semis (SOXL), the S&P 500 (SPY), Treasuries (BIL/IEF/TLT), volatility (UVXY/VIXM), the dollar (UUP) and commodities (DBC) to pick the playbook. Rebalanced daily; usually 100% in one ETF. Leveraged ETFs swing fast.
Daily, rules‑driven Nasdaq strategy that buys dips with QQQ/TQQQ and flips to PSQ/SQQQ when things get overheated or fearful, using simple “heat” gauges (RSI) plus cross‑checks from bonds, semis, volatility, the dollar, and commodities.
Out-of-sample edge: ~30.7% annualized return vs ~22.2% for the S&P, with Calmar ~0.81. Nasdaq dip-buy strategy uses RSI heat gates and dynamic hedges to pursue higher upside while managing risk.
