About

Daily, it usually holds VT (global stocks). When the S&P 500 trend weakens or markets get too hot/cold, it rotates to VXX (volatility), SQQQ (short tech), or TLT (Treasuries). Goal: sidestep selloffs while avoiding K-1 tax forms.
NutHow it works
RSI is a 0-100 heat gauge of price moves: >80 very hot, <30 very cold. Tickers: VT=world stocks, SPY=S&P 500, TLT=long Treasuries, VXX=volatility, SQQQ=short Nasdaq; TQQQ/SPXL are leveraged signals. It checks if SPY is above its 200-day average. Uptrend: if heat is extreme, use VXX; else VT. Downtrend: if very cold, VT; else choose SQQQ or TLT by short-term strength, or SQQQ if oversold. Reviewed daily.

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.
