About

A daily, rules-based Bitcoin strategy. If stocks are trending up, it rides Bitcoin with 3× leverage. If not, it can park in T‑Bills, switch to bonds/rates, or even short Bitcoin, guided by short-term trend and a simple 0–100 momentum score (RSI).
NutHow it works
Daily check: 1) If SPY (US stocks) is above its 100‑day average price (an uptrend), buy BITU (3× long Bitcoin). 2) Else, if Bitcoin recently fell >5% from a 10‑day high (max drawdown), hold BIL (T‑Bills). 3) Else, if Bitcoin is below its 10‑day average, own the strongest of SBIT (3× short Bitcoin), BSV (short‑term bonds), or TBT (inverse long Treasuries) by 5‑day RSI (a 0–100 “more ups than downs” score). 4) Else, if RSI>50 hold SBIT; otherwise hold BITU.
CheckmarkValue prop
Regime-driven Bitcoin strategy aims to capture upside when stocks rise and shift to cash/bonds on pullbacks, offering diversification vs the S&P. Note: out-of-sample data show sizable drawdowns; use as a small tactical sleeve.

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.
