A rules-based switch: when major US stock indexes look very hot, it hedges with VIX funds; when very cold, it takes a rebound bet (leveraged tech/S&P or short‑vol); otherwise it stays in short‑term Treasuries/bonds. Tech/growth‑tilted signals.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
It uses a 10‑day RSI (a 0–100 “heat” score: high=very hot, low=very cold) on big US stock gauges: QQQ (Nasdaq‑100, big tech), XLK (tech sector), VOOG (S&P 500 growth), SPY (S&P 500). If very hot, it buys VIX funds (UVXY/VIXM) as a hedge. If very cold, it buys rebound plays (TECL/SPXL) or short‑vol (SVIX). Otherwise it parks in BIL/BSV (short‑term Treasuries/bonds).
A rules-based switch: when major US stock indexes look very hot, it hedges with VIX funds; when very cold, it takes a rebound bet (leveraged tech/S&P or short‑vol); otherwise it stays in short‑term Treasuries/bonds. Tech/growth‑tilted signals.
Out-of-sample edge: 34.6% annualized vs S&P 18.4%, Calmar 1.47, Sharpe ~1.01. An adaptive RSI-driven strategy hedging hot markets and seizing rebounds in cold markets—higher upside with controlled drawdowns vs the S&P.
