A rule‑based plan that rides SPY/QQQ (sometimes via 3× funds) in uptrends, then rotates into Treasuries, cash, gold, the dollar, or volatility/short funds when markets overheat or stress rises. Main exposures: US large caps, tech, long Treasuries, gold, USD.

Split between offense and defense. ~30% rides uptrends in US stocks (SPY=S&P 500) and the Nasdaq (QQQ; TQQQ=3×) when price is above long‑term trend; it shifts to cash, gold, or short‑term bonds when prices look overheated (RSI high) or trend weak. ~70% is a safety net that turns on when stress rises (volatility/dollar/gold/oil). It moves to Treasuries (TLT/IEF/SHY/BND), the dollar (UUP), gold (GLD), or crash guards (UVXY=vol up, SQQQ/SH=short stocks). RSI = heat; moving averages = trend lines.

Out-of-sample, this strategy yields higher, more resilient growth than the S&P: 18.92% annualized vs 18.46%, max drawdown 14.92% vs 18.76%, and a stronger Calmar (~1.27). It couples upside-trend riding with defensive hedges to damp volatility.
