The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
Each day the strategy: - Checks if stocks look too hot or too cold using a “hot/cold” gauge (RSI = recent up vs down days). Hot → buy VXX (a fund that jumps when market volatility spikes). Cold → buy 3x bull funds for a rebound: SOXL (semis), TECL (tech), UPRO (S&P). - Otherwise, it follows the trend: above the long‑term line → prefer TQQQ (3x Nasdaq). Below → shift to SQQQ (3x inverse Nasdaq) or mix SQQQ with cash, guided by bond/short‑ETF readings. - Big drop? If Nasdaq fell >~12% in ~3 months → move to T‑Bills (BIL). - It runs several cash‑buffered versions of this playbook and gives more weight to the calmer ones to smooth swings.
