About

A daily rules-based plan that rides tech uptrends with leveraged funds (TQQQ, SOXL, TECL), buys sharp dips, and switches to defense (inverse Nasdaq, bonds, gold, dollar) when risk rises. High risk; for experienced, long‑term investors.
NutHow it works
Rebalances daily. First check: is SPY above its 200‑day average? If yes, go on offense—hold fast movers (leveraged tech/semis like TQQQ, TECL, SOXL) and, when calm, some short‑vol (SVXY). If no, try buying oversold dips. If no dip, switch to defense: inverse Nasdaq (PSQ/SQQQ), Treasuries, gold, and dollar. It also reacts to big drops and rate cues (TBT), and sizes via inverse volatility. RSI is a 0–100 “hot/cold” gauge; <30 = washed‑out, >80 = overheated.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers ~66% annualized returns with a Calmar ~2.93—roughly double the S&P 500 on risk-adjusted terms. It rides tech uptrends, buys dips, and shifts to defense to balance growth with controlled risk.

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.
