About

Rules-based, high-risk swing/rotation: fade overbought markets with UVXY, buy oversold 3x tech/market funds, or switch between tech/short-vol and inverse/Treasury baskets based on Tech (XLK) vs managed-futures (KMLM) momentum.
NutHow it works
It reads a short-term “heat meter” (RSI from 0–100). If market/sector funds look very hot (>~80), it buys UVXY, which rises when volatility spikes, to fade the pop. If some look very cold (<~30), it buys 3x bull funds (TECL, SOXL, SPXL, LABU) for a rebound. If no extremes, it compares Tech (XLK) to a managed-futures trend fund (KMLM): if Tech is stronger, it splits into the two most oversold of TECL, SOXL, SVIX (short vol); otherwise it holds the two strongest of SQQQ, SOXS, SPXS, TZA (inverse) and TLT (Treasuries). Uses leveraged/vol ETFs—high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Volatility-aware, rules-based overlay that fades spikes, buys oversold bounces, and switches regimes. A tactical sleeve to diversify a core S&P 500 and shield during volatility bursts; note OOS risk, keep allocations modest.

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.
