About

When the market looks overheated, switch to UVXY (a volatility spike play). Otherwise, buy a 2x ETF on whichever of MSFT/AAPL/GOOGL/NVDA lagged QQQ today; if none lagged, short tech with TECS. Aggressive, timing‑driven, high risk.
NutHow it works
RSI = a “hotness” score of recent price moves (0–100; 80+ is very hot). 1) Airbag: If RSIs for broad markets/sectors (QQQE, VTV, VOX, TECL, VOOG/VOOV, XLP, TQQQ, XLY, FAS, SPY) look 79–80+, buy UVXY, a 2x VIX ETF that jumps when stocks drop. 2) Offense: Otherwise buy one 2x ETF on the big tech stock that lagged QQQ today: MSFX=Microsoft, AAPX=Apple, GGLL=Google, NVDX=Nvidia. If none lagged, buy TECS (3x inverse tech). One holding at a time.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~34% annualized return vs ~17% for the S&P, Sharpe ~0.75, Calmar ~0.64. Tactical mega-cap tech rotations with volatility hedge; expect higher drawdowns (~53% vs ~19%). Higher upside, higher risk.

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.
