About

Daily system that swings between: +3x Nasdaq (TQQQ) when many signals are bullish, cash‑like T‑Bills (BIL) when signals are mixed or overheated, and −1x Nasdaq (PSQ) when signals are bearish. Concentrated, high‑volatility, tech‑led exposure.
NutHow it works
It picks one of three funds each day: TQQQ (triple‑strength bet on the Nasdaq‑100 going up), PSQ (bet on it going down), or BIL (cash‑like T‑Bills). A set of quick “votes” checks trend and strength: RSI (a 0–100 score of how hot/cold recent moves are), moving averages (200‑day/20‑day trend), and matchups like Tech vs Utilities or Bonds vs “short Nasdaq.” Bullish votes → TQQQ, bearish → PSQ, mixed/overheated → BIL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample tested daily system shifting among +3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), cash (BIL), and -1x Nasdaq (PSQ) by trend signals. Aims for better downside protection and selective upside versus the S&P 500 with disciplined risk management.

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.
