About this strategy

Cautious and adaptive, the strategy mainly holds the leveraged equity funds (TQQQ, UPRO, TNA, UDOW) but switches to the cash-like BIL when the VIX rises above 65. It de-risks by selecting the lowest-volatility or lowest-drawdown asset among the risk-on group, protecting the portfolio when market stress appears.
