About
A rules‑based, tech‑tilted plan. It uses a long‑term trend filter, an RSI “heat” gauge, and QQQ vs KMLM strength to switch among gold, cash, leveraged tech, or inverse tech. Mostly buys dips in uptrends; stays defensive or hedged when trends weaken.
1) Check trend: if the Nasdaq‑100 (QQQ) is above its 200‑day average, it’s risk‑on; otherwise defensive.
2) In risk‑on, ~80% flips between gold (GLD) and a buy‑the‑dip in leveraged tech (TECL) using RSI (a 0–100 “heat” gauge: >70 hot, <30 cold) and whether QQQ is stronger than KMLM (a trend‑following, multi‑asset ETF).
3) The other ~20% trades faster: buys oversold tech, holds cash, or briefly uses inverse funds (SQQQ/SOXS) if the short‑term trend turns down.
Out-of-sample tests show this rules-based, tech-tilted strategy delivering stronger risk-adjusted returns than the S&P 500, with better downside protection via trend filters, RSI heat, gold ballast, and selective inverse hedges.
