About

A two‑part, daily strategy that mostly buys a 3× NASDAQ‑100 fund when the trend is healthy but not “too hot,” otherwise parks in T‑Bills. In rough patches, if volatility calms, it may briefly flip into bonds or NASDAQ. Heavy big‑tech exposure.
NutHow it works
Each day it splits in two and asks: 1) Is the market trending up? (SPY above its 200‑day average). 2) Are conditions calm? (bonds look better than shorting stocks; SVXY up 5 days). 3) Is NASDAQ strong but not overheated? (RSI: a 0–100 hot/cold score; plus 20‑day average). If yes, both halves buy TQQQ (a 3× NASDAQ‑100 fund). If not, they sit in T‑Bills (BIL). In weak markets, if volatility cooled, a half may rotate into bonds (AGG) or TQQQ for a short bounce.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: annualized return ~16.87% vs SPY ~15.93%, via a disciplined NASDAQ‑tilt with trend and volatility filters. Potentially stronger growth in up markets, but with higher drawdowns (~46% vs ~19%).

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.
