About

All‑in switch: if semiconductors show stronger 10‑day momentum than a broad managed‑futures yardstick, go 3x long semis (SOXL). Otherwise hold whichever inverse trade is stronger—short tech (TECS) or short Bitcoin (BITI).
NutHow it works
Each day, compare 10‑day RSI (a 0–100 score of recent up/down moves) of SMH (semiconductor stocks) vs KMLM (managed‑futures, a broad trend yardstick). If SMH > KMLM: buy SOXL (3x long semiconductors). Else buy the one rising more: TECS (3x short tech) or BITI (short Bitcoin). One holding at a time. These are volatile, short‑term tools.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 21.7% annualized return vs SPY ~19%, driven by fast momentum shifts in semis/tech/crypto. Higher upside for risk-tolerant investors, but with substantial drawdown risk (~82%).

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.
