About

Aggressive, rules‑based timer for tech and semis: buys 3x bulls on dips, shorts or uses UVXY after blow‑offs, and parks in T‑Bills when unclear—guided by long‑term stock‑vs‑commodity and bond‑market trend checks.
NutHow it works
It runs two engines. 1) Pop Bots: in tech (QQQ) and semis (SMH), if prices look “too cold,” it buys 3x bulls (TQQQ/SOXL); if “too hot,” it shorts via 3x bears (SQQQ/SOXS) or buys volatility (UVXY); else it parks in T‑Bills (BIL). 2) Waves: longer‑trend checks (stocks vs commodities) and bond signals (IEF vs TLT, BND vs SPY) choose 3x stock sectors and 3x Treasury longs/shorts. Fear spikes (VIX) trigger a defensive version. Very aggressive.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy aims for higher upside than the S&P by tactically leveraging tech/semis with trend/volatility filters; ~24% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, with disciplined risk controls in volatile regimes.

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.
