About this strategy

A cautious, mean-reversion strategy mainly holds gold and silver ETFs - gold (GLD, IAU, SGOL) and silver (SLV, SIVR) - when their prices are above short-term averages or recent returns are moderate. It switches to risk-off bonds (SHY) or leveraged gold/silver plays (JNUG, UGL, NUGT, AGQ) when UVXY's RSI signals market stress or when gold or silver have fallen sharply, protecting the portfolio from large drawdowns.
