About

Buys the 3x Nasdaq fund on sharp dips; otherwise parks in a diversified Opus mix (core stocks+bonds, gold/US dollar/futures, top sectors, value, and trend‑based commodities) with some T‑bills. Rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
Daily check: If QQQ (Nasdaq‑100) fell >5% over 5 days, buy TQQQ (a 3x version of QQQ) to play a rebound—unless TQQQ jumped >5% yesterday, then wait in BIL (T‑bills). Otherwise hold an Opus mix: NTSX (core stocks+bonds), hedges (gold, US dollar, managed futures), the 2 strongest stock sectors, large‑cap value funds, and commodities only when trending up, plus a small cash‑like sleeve. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~20% annual return with positive risk-adjusted performance (Calmar ~0.77) and diversified hedges, offering exposure beyond a tech-heavy S&P. Dip-buy signals plus momentum/value/commodities deliver resilience and potential alpha vs the S&P.

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.
