Rules-based, risk-on/risk-off rotation. Rides uptrends with SPXL (3x S&P), flips to SPXU (3x inverse) or TLT when signals warn, and taps VIXY/UVXY only during extremes. Uses QQQ/TQQQ as fast “heat” gauges to time shifts.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
First check the S&P 500’s long‑term trend (price vs 200‑day average). In uptrends it usually holds SPXL (3x S&P 500). If the market looks overheated, too jumpy, or after sharp drops, it flips to SPXU (3x inverse S&P), hides in TLT (Treasuries), or briefly buys VIXY/UVXY (fear ETFs). It uses fast tech gauges QQQ/TQQQ to spot extremes.
Rules-based, risk-on/risk-off rotation. Rides uptrends with SPXL (3x S&P), flips to SPXU (3x inverse) or TLT when signals warn, and taps VIXY/UVXY only during extremes. Uses QQQ/TQQQ as fast “heat” gauges to time shifts.
High upside potential: out-of-sample annualized return ~38.9% vs SPY ~21.6%, via regime-switching, 3x leverage, and hedges. Expect higher volatility and drawdowns (~44.8% oos vs ~18.8%), but stronger long-term compounding when regimes favor rallies.
Made by /Ken Luu /derecknielsen & V3 is modified by Garen Phillips. V4 by HinnomTX solves the TECL oversold RSI loop of death -- UUP changed for USDU for no k-1 -- removed UVXY and VIXM and put SQQQ and SPXU
