About

Uses bond‑market momentum as an on/off switch. When bonds lead, it rotates into leveraged tech and short‑volatility ETFs; when they don’t, it parks in T‑bill cash. Aims to capture rate‑driven tech rallies while cutting risk in weak regimes.
NutHow it works
It watches how strong bond funds have been lately (a simple “recent‑strength” score) versus QQQ. If bonds look stronger over ~10–30 days, it buys an equal mix of high‑octane funds: SOXL (3× semis), TQQQ (3× Nasdaq‑100), TECL (3× tech), SVXY (short volatility). Otherwise it holds BIL (T‑bill cash). It flips when the signal changes.
CheckmarkValue prop
Bond-led timing targets big tech rallies with 3x levered bets and short-vol, delivering ~52.9% annualized out-of-sample vs ~21% for the S&P. Solid risk-adjusted metrics (Calmar ~0.96, Sharpe ~1.12), but higher drawdowns (~55%).

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.
