About

A daily, rule‑based switcher among 3x stock ETFs, Treasuries, and a volatility fund. It reads market trend and how “stretched” prices are to either ride growth (TQQQ), buy sharp dips (UPRO/TECL), hedge with volatility (UVXY), short tech (SQQQ), or sit in bonds (IEF).
NutHow it works
Step 1: Label the market using SPY’s 50‑day vs 200‑day average (uptrend vs downtrend). RSI (0–100) gauges how stretched prices are; >80 = very hot, <30 = washed out. Uptrend: usually hold TQQQ (3x Nasdaq). If very hot, hedge with UVXY (volatility) or park in IEF (Treasuries). Downtrend: if washed out, bet on a bounce with TECL (3x Tech) or UPRO (3x S&P). If QQQ is short‑term weak, pick SQQQ (3x inverse Nasdaq) or IEF by which is stronger; else TQQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample shows ~30% annualized return vs ~19% for the S&P, via a regime-switching strategy capturing growth and dip opportunities with hedges. Higher upside but higher drawdown risk—best for risk-tolerant alpha seekers.

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.
