About

Rules‑based, daily strategy that rotates among leveraged tech/semiconductor funds, inverse ETFs, volatility products, and T‑bills. It buys dips in uptrends and hedges or goes defensive when markets run hot or fall hard. Very high risk; expect big swings.
NutHow it works
Each day it runs many rule sets and picks the 3 with the best ~70‑day results, splitting money equally. Signals check stock trend, bonds/rates, and volatility (RSI = a short‑term “hot/cold” score). In calm uptrends it buys dips in leveraged tech/semis (TQQQ, TECL, SOXL, UPRO). If markets run hot or fall fast, it flips to UVXY/VIXY or bear ETFs (SQQQ, SOXS, SPXS) or parks in T‑bills (BIL). Falling rates favor TMF; rising rates favor TMV.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic regime-switching strategy tilts to leveraged tech for upside while using volatility and rate hedges. Out-of-sample returns ≈15.5% vs SPY 17.1%, but adds diversification and regime-driven opportunities beyond a single SPY exposure.

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.
