The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Daily check: Is SPY above its 200‑day average (uptrend)? If yes, hold UPRO (3x S&P) unless very “hot”: if SPY or QQQ 10‑day RSI >80 buy UVXY (volatility), or if SPY 60‑day RSI >60 hold BIL (T‑bills).<br>If below (downtrend): if QQQ RSI<30 buy TECL (3x tech bounce). Else if SPY > 25‑day avg then RSI>70→SPXU (3x short S&P) else UPRO. Else choose the strongest of IEF (Treasuries), SPXU, or BSV (short bonds).<br>RSI=0–100 heat gauge; moving average=avg price.
