About

Aggressive, daily strategy focused on semiconductors/tech 3× ETFs. It flips long/short and sometimes buys volatility using simple “hot/cold” (RSI) and bond/commodity regime checks. Designed for big swings; risk is very high.
NutHow it works
Daily, it chases fast swings in semiconductors/tech using 3× ETFs (SOXL, TQQQ, TECL). If the market looks “hot” (RSI—a 0–100 hot/cold gauge—is high), it buys volatility (UVXY/VIXY) expecting a pullback. If it’s very weak and bonds don’t confirm a rebound, it flips to 3× bearish (SOXS/SQQQ). It also reads interest‑rate trends (TLT) to favor TMF when rates fall or TMV/energy/USD when rates rise. It picks the strongest recent mover. Very high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this semiconductor/tech strategy targets outsized upside: ~49.3% annualized return vs SPY ~22.8%, with positive alpha and Calmar ~1.01, using macro regime filters and 3× ETFs. Higher risk, but compelling 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.
