About

Aggressive, rules‑based blend that buys 3x tech/semis on dips, hedges with volatility/inverse ETFs when fear spikes, and parks in short‑term bonds when trends weaken. 70% VIX/dip bots + 30% long‑term TQQQ variants with a trend gate.
NutHow it works
It’s a 70/30 blend of rules. It buys 3x tech funds (TQQQ, TECL, SOXL) on dips when RSI—a 0–100 “heat gauge” of short‑term pressure—is low (<~30). If fear spikes (UVXY jumps) or the broad trend turns down (SPY below its 200‑day line), it hedges with inverse funds (SQQQ/SOXS), moves to UVXY, or parks in short‑term bonds (BSV/SHY/BIL) or Treasuries (TLT). Calm markets (SVXY up) favor buying dips.
CheckmarkValue prop
High-conviction, rules-driven 3x-tech dip-buying with volatility hedges aims for outsized growth: ~83% annualized vs SPY ~23%, Sharpe ~1.44, Calmar ~1.93. Accept higher drawdowns (~43%) for amplified upside and spike-time risk control.

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.
