About

A tactical plan that dials exposure to 3× S&P 500 and 3× Nasdaq up or down using one‑month bond‑market momentum, with a volatility brake. When many signals are supportive it buys UPRO/TQQQ; when fear is high or signals are weak, it parks in T‑Bills (BIL).
NutHow it works
Step 1: Safety check. If market fear (UVXY) shows very strong recent gains (RSI ≥ 70), hold cash‑like T‑Bills (BIL). Step 2: Otherwise split 50/50 into S&P and Nasdaq sleeves. Each runs 8–9 votes comparing 1‑month strength (RSI, a 0–100 score) of Treasury‑bond ETFs (SHY/IEI/IEF/TLT/TMF and inverse TYO/TMV/TTT) to SPY/QQQ. Each true vote buys 3× stock funds (UPRO/TQQQ); else BIL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic, risk-controlled 3x levered strategy on SPY/QQQ using bond-signal momentum and a volatility brake. It captures upside in favorable regimes while parking in Treasuries during stress, offering a disciplined alternative to 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.
