About

A daily, single-sector strategy for Consumer Discretionary: hold XLY most days, jump into 3x bull (WANT) when the sector looks oversold, and switch to an inverse fund (SCC) when it looks extremely overheated.
NutHow it works
XLY is a fund of consumer-focused companies (e.g., Amazon, Tesla, Home Depot). Each day we read a 10‑day “hot‑or‑cold” score (RSI) on XLY. If very cold (<30), buy WANT (a 3x version of XLY) to play a rebound. If very hot (>85), buy SCC (an inverse fund) to bet on a pullback. Otherwise hold XLY. 100% in one fund; reviewed daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this XLY strategy targets higher upside: ~28% annualized vs 18% for the S&P, with a disciplined oversold/overbought rule. Accept higher drawdowns for potential superior sector-cycle returns.

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.
