BIL=T‑Bills; TMF/TMV=long/short 20yr Treas.; SCHD/DGRO=dividends; DBC=commodities; UGL=2x gold; BTAL=defensive.<br>The rules: hedge or go safe when markets look hot or fear rising; buy fast tech funds on panicky dips; if nothing extreme, sit in dividends. Uses 1–10 day swings and ~6‑month trend checks.
A rules-based “risk-on/risk-off” playbook: hedge or go safe when markets look hot or fear is rising; buy leveraged tech on oversold dips; otherwise hold dividend or defensive assets. Uses short-term heat gauges and slower trend filters.
Out-of-sample edge: ~60% annualized return vs ~22% for SPY; Sharpe ~1.67; Calmar ~2.64; alpha ~0.32. Beta ~0.95. Higher upside with stronger risk-adjusted profile, though drawdowns may be larger in extreme markets.
