About

A two‑sleeve, rules‑based strategy: a fast sleeve rotates among leveraged tech longs, inverse funds, and UVXY during swings; a slower sleeve prefers tech or long/short Treasuries by longer trends, with cash during stress. Very high risk.
NutHow it works
Two sleeves: 1) BB Signal: fast. It buys or shorts high‑beta tech/semis (TECL/TQQQ/SOXL vs SQQQ/SOXS) and sometimes hedges with UVXY. It uses trend gauges and an RSI “hot/cold” meter (0–100; high=overheated, low=washed‑out) plus the bond trend (TMF vs TMV). 2) FTLT: slower. Owns TECL when tech beats utilities; else flips between TMF/TMV. Moves to BIL when vol spikes. Uses leveraged ETFs—high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Two-sleeve, rules-based strategy that balances tech-led rotations with bond hedges and volatility defense. Out-of-sample: ~18.5% annualized return with regime-aware risk controls—providing diversification and risk management beyond a pure S&P 500 bet.

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.
