About

A daily, gold‑centric system that blends long‑term trend with short‑term mean‑reversion. It rotates among gold (GLD), 2× long/short gold (UGL/GLL), miners, cash‑like T‑Bills, the U.S. dollar, and small risk‑on/off slices based on moving averages and RSI.
NutHow it works
This strategy is “gold‑first.” It splits money across several mini‑systems that check trend (is price above its recent average?) and a short‑term “heat” score called RSI (0–100; low=washed out, high=overheated) each day. When trend is up it holds gold (GLD) or 2× gold (UGL). If gold looks overheated, it may briefly flip to 2× short gold (GLL) or miners’ bear funds. If trend weakens, it parks in cash‑like T‑Bills (BIL/SHV/SHY) or the U.S. dollar (UUP). In a few cases, after big gold moves, it temporarily uses stock/volatility ETFs (SPY, TQQQ, SVXY/UVXY). Rebalances daily.
