About

Aggressive, daily‑tactical basket that rotates among 3x semiconductor funds (SOXL/SOXS), leveraged Treasuries (TMF/TMV), and volatility (UVXY). It follows stock/bond trends and a short‑term “hot/cold” gauge to ride strength, fade extremes, or hedge crashes.
NutHow it works
Every day it reads three dials: stock trend, bond trend, and a short‑term “hot/cold” meter. If stocks are trending up and not overheated, it rides chip stocks with a 3x bull fund (SOXL). If stocks weaken, it flips to the 3x bear (SOXS) or to Treasuries. When markets look extreme, it briefly buys a volatility fund (UVXY). Bond signals decide whether to pair chips with long (TMF) or short (TMV) Treasuries.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this regime-rotor targets higher upside than the S&P (~34% vs ~22%). Uses stock/bond/volatility signals to time regimes; expect larger drawdowns (~30%), but Calmar ~1.13 signals solid risk-adjusted upside.

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.
