A fast, switch-on-a-dime strategy that rides uptrends with 3x tech/semis/S&P ETFs, flips to 3x Treasury trades when rates move, and uses VIX (UVXY) or inverse ETFs in selloffs. It’s very aggressive and tactical, using short-term trend and “hot/cold” signals.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It watches three things: trend, hot/cold, and fear. - Trend: moving averages (a price “trend line”) on stocks (SPY) and bonds (TLT). - Hot/cold: RSI, a short-term “temperature” meter (hot = stretched, cold = washed out). - Fear: UVXY (VIX) spikes. If stocks trend up, it buys the strongest 3x tech/semis/S&P fund. If stocks get too hot, it briefly buys UVXY. If very cold, it buys a bounce or shorts tech, depending on bonds. If bonds trend up (not overheated), it buys 3x long Treasuries (TMF); if overheated, it flips to 3x short (TMV). In inflation/rate-rising phases it rotates to cash-like Treasuries, inverse funds, energy, dollar, or volatility.

Out-of-sample: ~33.6% annualized return vs 22.7% for SPY; Calmar ~1.28. It rotates leveraged growth, bonds, and hedges to chase bull markets and hedge volatility - knowing drawdowns can be higher in downturns.
