Own QQQ most days; if QQQ’s recent 10‑day swings get unusually large, switch to TLT for safety. Rebalanced daily to try to sidestep big drawdowns.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day, the strategy checks how choppy QQQ (Nasdaq‑100, large US tech‑heavy stocks) has been over the last ~10 trading days. If the typical daily move (“standard deviation”) is above a set level (3), it shifts 100% into TLT (long‑term US Treasury bonds). Otherwise it holds 100% QQQ. This aims to dodge sharp stock sell‑offs. Exposure: tech/communication/consumer via QQQ; interest‑rate‑sensitive Treasuries via TLT.
Own QQQ most days; if QQQ’s recent 10‑day swings get unusually large, switch to TLT for safety. Rebalanced daily to try to sidestep big drawdowns.
Out-of-sample return ~32.6%/yr vs SPY ~24.2%; Calmar ~2.72; Sharpe ~1.67. Higher upside with drawdowns near 12%, but volatility-driven shifts to Treasuries aim to protect capital during turbulence while chasing growth.
