About

Holds SPY most days. When the tech‑heavy Nasdaq (QQQ) looks short‑term oversold (RSI<40), it pivots into QQQ—and if the long‑term trend is up, it goes aggressive with TQQQ (3x QQQ). Checks signals daily.
NutHow it works
Each day: If QQQ’s 30‑day RSI (a gauge of recent price weakness; lower = more sold off) is below 40, switch into QQQ. But if QQQ’s 100‑day average price is above its 200‑day (an uptrend), use TQQQ instead (3x QQQ, very volatile). Otherwise hold SPY (the S&P 500). QQQ tracks the tech‑heavy Nasdaq‑100.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample upside: aims for ~43% annualized return vs SPY's ~32%. Dip-buy into Nasdaq (QQQ) with selective 3x leverage only in uptrends, default SPY, and a trend filter to limit risk. Higher long-run potential with built-in risk controls.

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.
