About

A tactical Nasdaq‑100 swing strategy: buy TQQQ out of dips, flip to SQQQ out of rips (with UVXY at extremes), and sit in T‑bills otherwise, timed by RSI and a short‑term trend filter. Daily rebalanced.
NutHow it works
It trades the Nasdaq‑100 using simple signals. RSI (0–100) gauges how hot/cold recent moves are; >70 = stretched, <30 = washed‑out. A short EMA marks up/down trend. When RSI <35 it buys TQQQ (3× long), especially once price turns up; if still falling it may wait unless TQQQ is very washed‑out (RSI<30). When RSI >65 it rides with TQQQ while price rises, but flips to SQQQ (3× short) if strength is extreme (>70/76) or trend turns down; at the frothiest point it may briefly use UVXY. In between, it parks in BIL (cash‑like). Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~43.7% annualized return vs ~19.7% for the S&P. Calmar ~1.45 and Sharpe ~1.08 signal solid risk-adjusted growth; expect higher drawdowns (~30%). 850 days of Nasdaq‑100 testing backs a compelling growth edge.

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.
