The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It toggles among 3 holdings: SPYU (4x S&P 500), IUSB (diversified US bonds), or UVIX (2x VIX volatility).<br>Risk-on (SPYU) when the S&P 500 is trending up or very oversold; risk-off (IUSB) when tech or long Treasuries just fell hard or stocks lack momentum; UVIX around extremes (very hot markets or crashy whipsaws).<br>RSI=hot/cold 0–100; MA=average price; drawdown=peak-to-trough loss. SPY/SPXL/QQQ/TMF are just thermometers; you don’t hold them. High-risk: SPYU/UVIX can lose fast. Trades on signal change; ~10% drift allowed.
A tactical switcher among 4x S&P 500 (SPYU), core bonds (IUSB), and 2x volatility (UVIX), using trend, momentum, and stress checks to go risk-on, risk-off, or hedge during extremes.
Dynamic 3-asset tilting (SPYU, IUSB, UVIX) uses regime signals to diversify beyond the S&P 500. Out-of-sample: ~16.7% annual return vs SPY 18.2%; Sharpe ~0.54; max drawdown ~47% (higher). A crisis-aware, volatility-hedged complement.
