About this strategy

Dynamic and defensive, the strategy mainly holds broad-market and bond funds such as SPY, TLT, UUP and GLD, but it switches to VIXY when the Nasdaq is overbought or the S&P 500 is trending up, and it moves into XLK or SMH when the market is oversold. It protects itself by shifting to inverse or bond weights when drawdowns exceed 5% or 3%, and it keeps a small allocation to GLD, UUP and SHY as a safety net.
