Big news: Rule of 16 Plus isn't just about 0DTE options anymore! We've launched a brand-new Buy and Hold Strategy section, and we're tracking three $10,000 portfolios live, right here on the site, starting October 20, 2026. Here's what they are.
🚀 Momentum Rotation
Ride the winners. We hold the 5 S&P 500 stocks that have climbed the most over the past six months. If one falls 25% from its high, we sell it and swap in the next strongest stock. Every six months we re-rank and refresh the lineup.
💡 Forward P/E Hybrid
Same game plan, with one twist: we only buy leaders that are still reasonably priced, with a forward P/E between 0 and 20. The goal is to catch strong stocks without paying sky-high prices for them, and to keep the ride a little smoother.
📈 SPY Buy & Hold
Our benchmark. Put $10,000 in SPY and never touch it. If our strategies can't beat this, we'll be the first to tell you!
How did they do?
Here's what $10,000 would have gained in each strategy over the last 1, 3 and 5 years (through October 2026):
| Strategy | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🚀 Momentum Rotation | +156% | +585% | +759% |
| 💡 Forward P/E Hybrid | +74% | +171% | +271% |
| 📈 SPY Buy & Hold | +15% | +86% | +82% |
Momentum has been the rocket ship, and the Hybrid has been the steadier ride, with smaller dips along the way. Both had their bumpy stretches, though. Momentum dropped as much as 37% at one point and the Hybrid about 26%, so buckle up!
