A daily, rules‑based blend that rides 3x stock funds in calm uptrends, pairs them with 3x long Treasuries, buys big dips, and otherwise sits in T‑Bills. It uses simple “thermometers” (volatility, trend, RSI, drawdown) and occasionally hedges with a volatility fund.

It splits your money into 3 parts (25%, 25%, 50%). Each part watches simple “thermometers” of the market: how bumpy it’s been (volatility), recent damage (peak‑to‑bottom drop), trend (above/below a 25‑day average), and a hot/cold meter (RSI: 0–100 scale of recent price strength). When things look calm and trending up, it holds turbo stock funds (3x S&P 500 and/or 3x Nasdaq) and pairs them with 3x long‑term US Treasuries (a barbell for balance). When conditions look shaky, it parks in T‑Bills. After very sharp 5‑day drops, it may briefly buy the dip with those turbo stock funds. In rare, extreme moments (e.g., Nasdaq is extremely overheated or just snapped back), it may use a volatility fund for a short‑term hedge/trade.

Out-of-sample annualized return ~50% vs SPY ~23%, with Sharpe ~1.19 and Calmar ~1.12. A dynamic stock/bond barbell with dip-buying and selective hedges aims for bigger upside while controlling risk.
