About

A high‑octane, regime‑aware swing strategy: use a 200‑day trend filter and an RSI “heat meter” to buy tech on dips, fade extreme spikes, and, in selloffs, pivot to bonds, USD, or gold miners. Heavy use of 3× leveraged ETFs.
NutHow it works
RSI is a 0–100 “heat meter” (high=overheated, low=washed‑out). 1) First, trend: if the S&P 500 is above its 200‑day line, stay risk‑on: usually long 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ). If it gets too hot, briefly flip short (SQQQ) or mix with TIPS (STIP). 2) If below the 200‑day, buy big dips (TECL/UPRO). Otherwise run a buy‑dips/sell‑rips toggle between TQQQ and SQQQ. After sharp drops, rotate to Treasuries (TLT/TMV), T‑bills (SHY/SHV/STIP), US dollar (USDU/UDN), or gold miners (GDX).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy aims for tech-driven upside with regime switching, delivering ~72% annualized return vs SPY's ~22%, and a Calmar ~1.77. Higher drawdowns come with higher upside; disciplined hedges help manage risk vs the S&P 500.

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.
