About

Daily, it buys leveraged Nasdaq after sharp dips, switches to a volatility fund after very hot run‑ups to bet on a pullback, and parks in T‑bills when neither case applies. Simple three‑state, momentum‑heat timing.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks how “hot or cold” Nasdaq‑100 has been using a 0–100 speed score from TQQQ’s price (RSI). - If it’s unusually cold on a 1‑month view, buy TQQQ (a 3x Nasdaq fund). - If it’s extremely hot on a 2‑week view, buy UVXY (benefits if markets drop). - Otherwise hold BIL (T‑bills).
CheckmarkValue prop
RSI-driven three-state rotation (TQQQ, UVXY, cash). Out-of-sample: ~39% annualized returns vs ~15% S&P; Sharpe ~0.97 vs ~0.81; Calmar ~1.74. Higher upside with larger drawdowns (~22.7% vs ~18.8%).

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.
