The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day it checks if the S&P 500’s recent average is above its long‑term average (21‑day EMA vs 200‑day MA). If yes, put 50% in SPMO (US stocks with strong recent gains) and 50% split across GLD (gold), DBMF/KMLM (managed‑futures trend funds), CLSE (long/short stocks), SDCI (broad commodities). If not, split evenly across DBMF, KMLM, ACWV/USMV (low‑volatility stock funds), and GLD. Rebalanced daily.
A trend-based ETF mix that goes risk-on with US stock momentum when the S&P 500 is rising, and shifts to a defensive blend of managed futures, low-volatility stock funds, and gold when it isn’t. Rebalanced daily.
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 2.02 vs 1.97, max drawdown 7.21% vs 8.89%, Calmar 4.16. A regime-switching mix of momentum stocks, gold, and trend futures offers diversification and stronger risk-adjusted upside relative to the S&P 500.
