About

Buys big tech/chip funds after quick drops using 3x ETFs to catch rebounds; if no dip or risk is high, parks in short‑term Treasuries and other safe havens. Tactical, tech‑heavy, and high risk.
NutHow it works
It watches QQQ (Nasdaq‑100), SOXX (chipmakers) and sometimes XBI (biotech) for sharp weekly drops. When they dip, it buys the 3x bull version (TQQQ, SOXL) to ride a rebound. If no dip or things look overheated, it moves to short‑term Treasuries (BSV/SHY). A “hot/cold” gauge (RSI) and a market trend check (S&P above its 200‑day average) control risk; in rough patches it may use gold, the US dollar, long Treasuries, or a volatility hedge (UVXY).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.45, Calmar 2.63, and 77% return vs SPY's 27%. A tactical tech/semis strategy using 3x ETFs with risk controls and hedges for bigger upside and disciplined risk vs the S&P 500.

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.
