About

Contrarian, daily-tactical: buy 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ) when QQQ looks oversold; otherwise sit in a defensive asset (consumer staples or bonds) that’s currently most oversold. Very high risk when in TQQQ; frequent trading.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks a “recent weakness” score (RSI, 0–100) on QQQ, an index fund of big tech-focused Nasdaq-100. If that 30‑day score is below 40 (QQQ has been weak), it buys TQQQ, a 3× version of QQQ, aiming for a rebound. Otherwise it holds a defensive fund: either XLP (everyday‑goods companies) or VBF (investment‑grade bonds), picking the one that looks more beaten‑down over the last 10 days (lower RSI). Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~29.3% annualized return with Calmar 1.29. Diversifies with tech rebound upside via tactical rotation to oversold defenses. Higher drawdowns vs SPY, but offers meaningful risk-adjusted exposure across cycles.

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.
