About

A daily, rules‑based, aggressive strategy that tries to beat SPY by buying 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ) in uptrends or on dips, shifting to low‑vol stocks and bonds when momentum fades, and activating crash hedges (UVXY/SQQQ/SOXS) when the VIX “fear” gauge spikes.
NutHow it works
Daily, rules-based. It blends two similar playbooks. - Aggressive when trends are favorable: 90% TQQQ (3x Nasdaq), 10% SHY (short Treasuries). - Defensive when not: 60% SPLV (low‑vol stocks), 40% AGG (bonds). Decisions use: SPY 5‑day move (buy dips >‑3%, defend >+3%), 50/200‑day averages (trend), RSI (0–100 hot/cold), drawdowns, and a VIX “fear” trigger that can hedge with UVXY/SQQQ/SOXS or move to cash (BIL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return: 37.18% vs SPY 23.08%. An aggressive trend-following strategy with crash hedges offering outsized upside in up markets, plus volatility hedges to weather stress—targeting stronger long-run growth than the S&P 500 (with higher 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.
