About

BIG POPPA is a daily, multi-bot strategy that uses 3x levered ETFs (SPXL, QLD, SOXL) for upside capture and UVXY for volatility hedging, with cash in BIL when uncertain. It applies RSI-based triggers to SPY, QQQ, and SMH, adds a dividend/bond sleeve, and weights allocations across bots to tilt toward expected big moves while managing risk.
NutHow it works
BIG POPPA is a daily, multi-bot system that aims to ride big market moves and protect against sharp downturns. It watches three market slices: SPY (large-cap), QQQ (tech), and SMH (semiconductors). For each slice, it looks at the short-term momentum of the related 3x ETF (SPXL, QLD, SOXL) using a 10-day RSI. If RSI is very high (around 80+), the system shifts into UVXY to profit from or hedge sudden volatility. If RSI is low (around 30 or below), it leans into the levered ETF (and uses BIL as cash). If neither condition is met, it may stay in cash or rotate through other assets per the rules. There are additional branches labeled as “Not a black Swan Event” with alternate tickers and a dedicated “Monthly Dividends” sleeve that rotates into dividend-focused funds (CII, AMZA) and bonds (IEF, TL/TLT) to diversify and dampen risk. The top-level weights determine how much of the total capital each bot controls, and the system rebalances daily to reflect evolving signals.
CheckmarkValue prop
Big Poppa delivers higher upside with discipline: OOS return 30.4% vs 21.4% S&P; Sharpe ~1.04; Calmar ~1.21. UVXY hedge + RSI-driven levered bets and dividends/bonds sleeve aim for stronger risk-adjusted gains; expect higher drawdowns.

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.
