About

A 90% cash + 10% high‑octane sleeve. It buys volatility when markets look too hot, buys 3× tech/stock funds when they look washed‑out, and otherwise toggles between 3× long, 3× short, or cash using simple trend and risk checks.
NutHow it works
90% sits in T‑Bills (BIL). The other 10% swings aggressively: - RSI (a 0–100 “hot/cold” gauge): if big indexes/sectors look red‑hot (~80+), buy VXX (benefits when markets wobble). If washed‑out (~30), buy 3× bull funds (SOXL/TECL/UPRO). - Otherwise, switch among 3× long Nasdaq (TQQQ), 3× short (SQQQ), or cash using trend checks (200‑day line), recent drops (−12% in 60 days), and bond vs short‑S&P strength. Focus is tech/Nasdaq/semis.
CheckmarkValue prop
Risk-controlled strategy: 90% T-bill cash, 10% tactical sleeve. OOS Sharpe ~2.10 vs S&P 1.10; OOS max drawdown ~4.8% vs 18.8%; Calmar ~3.22; OOS return ~15.4%. Safer, with selective tech/Nasdaq upside.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
