About

A cash-first, RSI-driven, multi-asset strategy that uses hedges (PSQ/SHV) and Treasury momentum to protect risk while still pursuing equity upside; rebalances daily.
NutHow it works
What this strategy does, in plain language: - It mostly sits in cash or cash-like assets (about 80% of capital) to stay safe. The rest (about 20%) is used to build hedges and selective bets on stocks. - It uses RSI (a momentum gauge) on a basket of popular ETFs to decide when market momentum is very strong and a pullback could be near. A high RSI (around 80) signals the system to deploy hedges or short-like positions using PSQ (bets against tech/QQQ) and SHV (short-term Treasuries) to dampen risk. - It also has a separate “mean reversion” and growth tilt module that looks for signs that recent moves may revert and adjusts exposures to growth-friendly ETFs like SPY, QQQ, XLK, and related proxies accordingly. - There is another module for Treasury Momentum that may push money into long-dated Treasuries (TLT) when those bonds show positive momentum, providing diversification away from equities. - Signals are evaluated daily and positions are adjusted to reflect the latest readings. The overall aim is a high Sharpe ratio (good risk-adjusted return) by combining safety (cash/hedges) with opportunistic equity exposure when signals align.

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.
