About

Own Bitcoin when it’s trending up. Otherwise rotate among tech, biotech, inverse Nasdaq, volatility, or short-term bonds using trend and overbought/oversold signals (moving averages, RSI, recent drops). Daily and high risk (leveraged ETFs).
NutHow it works
Step 1: Is Bitcoin rising now (5-day above 20-day average price)? If yes, hold BITO. If not, check stocks: is SPY 9-day above 25-day average? If yes, tilt to tech/biotech unless readings say “too hot” or after sharp drops—then use hedges (SQQQ) or volatility (UVXY). If stocks are weak, favor defense (UVXY, SQQQ or short-term bonds) and sometimes buy biotech (LABU) when very washed out. It uses moving averages, RSI (a 0–100 hot/cold score), and recent % moves. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample evidence shows far higher upside: ~77.5% annualized vs SPY ~22%, Calmar ~1.36 and Sharpe ~1.18. Expect larger drawdowns (~57%), but with superior risk-adjusted growth from crypto/tech rotation.

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.
