About

High‑octane tactical system that buys 3× tech/semis on dips, hedges or shorts when rallies look overheated, and otherwise rides longer‑term bond/sector “waves.” Heavy tech/semis focus; uses UVXY and multiple 3× ETFs. Very high risk and swingy.
NutHow it works
It blends several “bots.” First it asks: are stocks very hot or very sold‑off? (RSI: a 0–100 “stretched vs washed‑out” meter.) - Too hot → hedge/short (UVXY, SQQQ, SOXS/TECS) - Washed‑out → buy 3× tech/semis (TQQQ, SOXL, TECL/SPXL) - Otherwise → follow slower “Waves” that pick bond bull/bear (TMF/TYD vs TMV/TYO) and a few sectors (MIDU, CURE, UTSL) using stock‑vs‑commodity and bond‑trend checks. Cash (BIL) when unclear.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 23.43% annualized vs SPY 21.50%, driven by dynamic, tech-tilted hedging across stocks, bonds and volatility. Higher upside in rallies, but larger drawdowns for potentially stronger long-run growth.

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.
