About

A daily “switchboard” that buys the dip in leveraged tech/Nasdaq when trends are healthy, and quickly flips to volatility, inverse ETFs, Treasuries, or commodities when markets overheat or crack. Very aggressive; relies on RSI, trend, and bond/commodity cues.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks the market’s “mood” using simple signals: - Trend: Is the S&P 500 above its long-term average? If yes, risk-on; if no, play defense. - Bonds: Is the long Treasury trend up or overbought? That picks TMF (3x long Treasuries) or TMV (3x short). - RSI (0–100): Under ~30 = oversold (buy dips); over ~75–80 = overbought (take cover). In risk-on it buys 3x tech/Nasdaq/S&P funds (TQQQ, TECL, SOXL, UPRO/SPXL), usually the weakest over the last week (mean reversion). If markets spike or fall fast, it switches to volatility (VXX) or inverse ETFs (SQQQ, SPXS, SOXS). In risk-off it parks in short-term Treasuries (BIL/SHY), long/short Treasuries (TMF/TMV), or commodities (PDBC/OILK to avoid K‑1).
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic regime-switching strategy aims for ~21% annualized return, near the S&P 500, with active hedges (volatility, Treasuries, commodities) to ride trends and defend in risk-off. Similar upside, but higher drawdowns in extreme markets.

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.
