About

Daily, tech‑heavy market‑timer. Hides in T‑Bills after sharp selloffs, otherwise rotates between bearish inverse/vol funds and bullish 3x tech based on short‑term trend/volatility/RSI. Scales in over 9 days. High risk, short‑term.
NutHow it works
Each day it decides among three modes: 1) Cash (BIL) if the S&P 500 has dropped hard in the last few days. 2) Bearish: rotate into inverse tech/Nasdaq/semis or long‑vol (TECS, SQQQ, SOXS, UVXY), picking the strongest by recent return, volatility and RSI (a “hot/cold” speedometer) over 5/10/15 days. 3) Bullish: when the inverse S&P (SH) is falling, buy leveraged tech/short‑vol (SOXL, TQQQ, TECL, SVXY). It scales in across 9 small steps.
CheckmarkValue prop
This strategy offers a smoother ride than the S&P 500 with similar upside. Out-of-sample: ~16.3% vs ~17.8%, but max drawdown ~9.8% vs ~18.8%, Calmar ~1.67. Tech-driven timing preserves upside while protecting capital.

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.
