About

Buys 3× tech funds on sharp dips, sits in T‑bills most of the time, and bets on a volatility spike after extreme run‑ups, all guided by a 14‑day RSI on QQQ. High risk.
NutHow it works
It checks the 14‑day RSI (a 0–100 gauge of recent buying vs. selling) of QQQ (the Nasdaq‑100). If RSI > 80: buy UVXY (rises when market volatility spikes). If RSI < 35: split 50/50 in TQQQ and TECL (both 3× tech‑heavy funds). Otherwise hold BIL (T‑bills). Rebalances only on signal changes; 10% drift allowed.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~30% vs SPY ~17.7%; Calmar ~1.31 signals strong risk-adjusted upside. This rules-based, tech-heavy strategy moves among cash, leveraged tech bets and volatility exposure for higher growth with disciplined risk vs the S&P 500.

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.
