About

Aggressive, momentum-driven mix: hedge with UVXY when markets look overheated; otherwise own top Bitcoin/Big Tech/small-cap leaders (often via 2–3x ETFs). If Bitcoin breaks down, use BITI (short BTC). Very high risk and volatility.
NutHow it works
1) Heat check: If the market looks “too hot” using RSI (a 0–100 heat gauge; ~80+ = frothy) on major indexes/sectors, move 100% to UVXY—a fund that jumps when fear/volatility spikes. 2) Otherwise, ride leaders in Bitcoin, Big Tech and small caps, often via leveraged funds (e.g., TQQQ=3x Nasdaq, TECL=3x Tech, UPRO=3x S&P, UWM=2x small caps). 3) If Bitcoin weakens sharply, switch to BITI (short Bitcoin). Picks are the recent top performers across very short/short/medium windows, equally weighted.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.31 vs 0.99, Calmar 2.19, and 126% annualized return vs 17% for SPY. Momentum across crypto/mega-caps with a volatility hedge. Higher upside, disciplined risk vs the S&P, though larger 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.
