About this strategy

Dynamic and disciplined, the strategy keeps a core of leveraged ETFs - such as UPRO - when the S&P 500 stays near its trend and the bond-to-bill spread is favorable. When the market's drawdown climbs past 6 % it pivots to defensive assets like GLD, SHY, UUP, and a balanced mix of COM and FAAR, and if the drawdown exceeds 11 % it adds UVXY for volatility protection.
