About

A daily, rules-based system that fades overheated markets with UVXY, parks in bonds when weak, and only takes leveraged tech (TQQQ) when trends are strong or prices look washed out. Emphasis on volatility spikes and defense over constant stock exposure.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks: trend (price vs 200‑day average), how “hot/cold” recent moves are (RSI = speed/size of gains/losses), and recent surges/dips. Too hot → buys UVXY (fear gauge). Weak/downtrend → bonds (BOND) or short NASDAQ (SQQQ). Strong trend/oversold → TQQQ. Sometimes staples (XLP) or US dollar (UUP).
CheckmarkValue prop
Diversified, volatility-timed strategy with negative SPY beta (-0.10). Out-of-sample: ~19.5% annualized return, Calmar 2.64, Sharpe 1.30, max drawdown 7.39%. A risk-conscious complement to the S&P 500 offering diversification in volatile markets.

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.
