About

A daily “switchboard” that chases tech-led uptrends with leveraged ETFs, buys sharp dips, and quickly flips to volatility, inverse stock funds, bonds, cash, or commodities when fear, rising rates, or inflation hit. Uses simple heat/trend rules to decide.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks three dials: 1) Are stocks trending up (price vs long‑term average)? 2) Are bonds/rates supportive or hostile (TLT trend/overbought)? 3) Is fear spiking (volatility)? If risk‑on, it buys 3x tech/Nasdaq/semis (TQQQ/TECL/SOXL). If prices look “too hot” (RSI=recent heat gauge) or after big pops, it briefly buys VXX as a brake. If “too cold” (RSI low), it buys the most beaten‑down 3x fund for a bounce. In stress/inflation, it flips to inverse ETFs, TMV, T‑Bills, or PDBC/OILK.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers higher upside: ~34.5% annualized vs ~21.8% for the S&P 500, with adaptive hedges across tech, volatility, bonds and commodities. Note: larger drawdowns can occur in stressed 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.
