About

A daily, rules-based swing trader. It first asks if stocks are in a long-term uptrend. In uptrends it mostly rides 3x tech (TQQQ), but fades short-term overheating with SQQQ/UVXY. In downtrends it leans defensive or inverse. Bond signals gate buying dips.
NutHow it works
Step 1: Is the S&P 500 in a long-term uptrend? (price above its 200‑day average). If yes, play offense; if no, play defense. Offense: Mostly ride tech using 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ). If the market looks overheated (RSI high or a big 1‑day pop), briefly flip to 3x short Nasdaq (SQQQ) or volatility (UVXY). If very oversold but bonds say “risk‑on,” take short‑term pops (UVXY/SOXS). Otherwise rotate among TQQQ/SPXL/UPRO/TMF or park in short‑term bonds (BSV). Defense: Lean more on SQQQ/SOXS/SPXS, cash/bonds (BSV/AGG) and sometimes UUP; still use UVXY on extreme overbought and buy-the-dip only with bond confirmation. Checks SHY/SPHB and BIL/IEF to confirm risk mood.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return 32.6% vs 23.3% for the S&P, driven by regime-switching and leveraged tech exposure. Expect higher upside but also larger drawdowns (~51% vs ~19%), managed by disciplined risk controls.

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.
