Daily rules that avoid stocks when the S&P 500 looks overheated (move to T‑Bills/bonds/gold) and lean in when it’s not (sometimes with 2x S&P). Otherwise hold SPY, buy tech on deep dips, or sit in Treasuries.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day the strategy checks if the S&P 500 looks hot or cool using simple “heat” gauges and trend lines.<br>• If very hot: park in cash‑like T‑Bills (SHV). If still elevated: rotate to the strongest of Treasuries (IEF), Gold (GLD), or short bonds (BSV). Otherwise: use 2x S&P 500 (SSO).<br>• If cool: if the S&P is still in an uptrend, hold SPY. If tech is deeply oversold, try Technology (XLK). Else, hold Treasuries (IEI).

Out-of-sample return ~40% annually vs SPY ~23%; max drawdown ~11.5% vs ~13.7%; Sharpe ~1.70 vs ~1.30; Calmar ~3.50. Daily risk-managed tilts aim for higher, smoother gains than the S&P 500.
This combines a prevent crash strategy with a leveraged sp500. Prevent crash when sp500 is high and leveraged when it is lower.
