About

Uses a QQQ “heat gauge” to switch between leveraged stock funds and defensive hedges. In normal conditions it picks the strongest and calmest names; when markets are too hot or cold, it shifts to anti‑beta, volatility, and commodity/gold funds.
NutHow it works
Think of QQQ’s 10‑day RSI as a heat gauge (0=cold, 100=hot). If warm (40–75), it buys a mix of recent winners, the calmest, and low‑drawdown picks from: TECL/TQQQ/SPXL/UDOW (broad/tech), TNA (small caps), ERX (energy), RETL (retail), DRN (real estate), plus NVDA & LLY. If too hot (≥75) or cold (≤40), it moves to defenses: BTAL (anti‑beta stocks), VIXM (volatility), USCI/GLD (commodities/gold), sized by calmness. Rebalances on ~10% drift.

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.
