About

A risk-managed, multi-ETF strategy using 3x levered bets on growth (tech/semis and broad market) with built-in volatility and treasury hedges to limit losses, aiming to outperform the S&P 500 while keeping drawdowns in check.
NutHow it works
Plain-language overview: - The system builds baskets of 3x levered bets on the market (tech, semis, SPY proxies) to chase upside in rising markets. - It looks for the 5-day moving average to be at a bottom zone before loading the basket, aiming to buy when prices are relatively cheap on a short horizon. - It has a risk-off playbook: if volatility rises or bonds look weak, it shifts into hedges (UVXY, VIXM), dollar exposure (USDU), and safety assets (treasuries, SH/SHY). - It also uses long-dated treasury trend and RSI-like momentum tests to decide when to tilt toward TMF (bull treasuries) or TMV (bear treasuries). - Diversification across sectors and markets (EEM, EFA, XLP, EWZ, UCO, PDBC, DBC) helps avoid a single bet dragging the whole portfolio. - The goal is to maximize the Calmar ratio (return relative to the size of drawdowns), i.e., strive for strong upside with controlled downside.
CheckmarkValue prop
An out-of-sample, growth-driven strategy aiming to beat the S&P 500 with smoother downside. Expected ~58% annualized upside, Calmar ~1.69, and built-in hedges (volatility, dollar, Treasuries) to limit drawdowns.

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.
