A tactical, risk-on/risk-off system built around TQQQ for upside. It rides tech strength when trends are healthy, shifts to cash/bonds or VIX-based hedges when markets look frothy or stressed, and may short in downtrends. It occasionally buys extreme dips.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
First, check if the S&P 500 (SPY) is above its long-term trend. If yes, a sleeve tries to ride tech-led gains with TQQQ or QQQ/SPY, but quickly backs off to cash or volatility hedges when things look overheated. If no, it turns defensive: uses cash/bonds, volatility hedges, or even shorts; only holds TQQQ when the short-term trend is up. It sometimes buys extreme dips.
A tactical, risk-on/risk-off system built around TQQQ for upside. It rides tech strength when trends are healthy, shifts to cash/bonds or VIX-based hedges when markets look frothy or stressed, and may short in downtrends. It occasionally buys extreme dips.
Regime-driven tactical strategy that seeks tech-led upside with TQQQ, using cash/bonds and volatility hedges for risk control. OOS returns ~64%/yr vs ~18% for the S&P, Calmar ~1.61. Higher upside, but larger drawdowns can occur.
