About

An aggressive, rules‑based bot that rides tech/semis uptrends and buys dips, flips to bear or hedge mixes when trends weaken or volatility spikes, and sometimes moves to cash. Uses 3x ETFs and VIX funds with daily rebalancing; very high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it: - If a 3x stock fund is very hot (RSI>80), buy UVXY for a quick pullback; if very cold (RSI<30), buy that fund on the dip. - If VIX is surging, park in T‑Bills (BIL). - Trend test (stocks vs commodities over 100–600 days): bull → TQQQ + healthcare + SVXY or utilities; bear → SQQQ mix. - If bonds lead or SPY is below trend, switch to hedges (tech + Treasuries/commodities/gold/dollar). Uses inverse‑vol sizing; rebalances daily. Key funds: TQQQ, SOXL, SPXL, SQQQ, CURE, UTSL, SVXY, UVXY, TMF/TLT, PDBC/DBC, GLD, USDU/UUP, SH, BTAL, BIL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~41% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, higher Sharpe (~1.38 vs ~1.32) and Calmar (~1.84). Tech/semis tilt with dynamic hedges aims for bigger upside with disciplined risk.

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.
