About

A daily, multi-sleeve rotation that pits tech vs bonds, gold, and emerging markets, then rides the recent winner using 2x–3x ETFs with crash hedges (UVXY/shorts) or T‑bills when weak. High potential and high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it splits your money across mini-models. Each one compares US tech (QQQ/TQQQ) against one alternative: Treasuries (TLT), gold (GLD), or emerging markets (EEM). If tech is stronger (by a short-term “speedometer” or recent returns), it buys a 3× tech fund (TQQQ) with crash rules that can flip to volatility (UVXY) or shorts (SQQQ). If not, it uses leveraged funds on the other side (TMF/TMV, UGL/GLL, EDC/EDZ) or T‑bills (BIL/BSV). Rebalanced daily. Very aggressive.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample upside is dramatic: ~80% annualized return vs ~29% for the S&P, with Calmar ~7.13 and Sharpe ~2.29. Tech-led rotation plus crash hedges in bonds/gold/EM aim for superior risk-adjusted growth—accept higher drawdowns for bigger upside.

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.
