About

A daily, risk‑managed, leveraged ETF strategy that rides tech/S&P uptrends, buys dips cautiously, parks in T‑Bills when shaky, and at times hedges overheated tech with inverse funds. Uses simple “hot/cold” (RSI), volatility, and drawdown checks.
NutHow it works
It blends 3 daily systems (25% + 25% + 50%): - In calm markets, it rides UPRO/TQQQ (3x S&P/Nasdaq) and pairs some with TMF (3x long Treasuries). In stress, it parks in BIL (T‑Bills). - It “buys the dip” after ~5% pullbacks, but avoids chasing after huge 1‑day pops. - A tactical sleeve hedges overbought tech/semis with SOXS/TECS and re‑enters TECL/SOXL when fear fades. - RSI = a 0–100 hot/cold gauge guides these switches.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy beats SPY on risk-adjusted return: Sharpe 1.63 vs 1.41, higher alpha, and much stronger growth, with daily risk controls and tech hedges. Note: drawdowns can exceed SPY (~42%), but Calmar ~1.68.

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.
