About

Aggressive, rules-based rotation using RSI and trends. Buys 3x tech/semis on dips (TQQQ, SOXL, TECL), flips to their inverses or UVXY when overheated, and uses longer-term “Waves” to shift into bond/defensive mixes or cash. Very high risk and turnover.
NutHow it works
It’s a fast, rules-based plan that trades in three layers. - RSI is a 0–100 “heat gauge”: below ~30 = washed‑out (buy dips); above ~70–80 = too hot (hedge/short). - If fear (VIXM) is high, it plays defense with UVXY or inverse tech/semis (SQQQ, SOXS, TECS). - Otherwise “Pop Bots” buy sharp dips in SPXL/TQQQ/SOXL, or hedge if too hot. If no quick setup, “Waves” follow longer trends (SPY vs DBC) to rotate into Treasuries (TMF/TMV, TYD/TYO) plus MIDU/CURE or UTSL. Runs at 4 speeds and can park in cash (BIL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets higher long-run growth (23.4% vs SPY’s 21.5%), with regime-aware hedging that leverages tech leadership. Expect larger drawdowns (~34% vs ~19%), but disciplined risk controls offer meaningful upside potential.

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.
