About

A daily, contrarian swing strategy across S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Semiconductors. It buys volatility when markets look overheated, buys 2x bull ETFs on sharp dips, and otherwise switches between inverse ETFs or short-term bonds based on a quick drawdown check.
NutHow it works
Rebalanced daily. Runs three mini-bots on S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, and Semiconductors. RSI = a 0–100 “hot/cold” score from recent up vs down days. Hot (>80): buy UVXY (volatility) for a pullback. Cold (<30): buy 2x bulls (SSO/QLD/USD) for a bounce. Else: if SPY fell >6% in 10 days, pick an inverse (QID/SDS) or bonds (BSV); if not, pick the most beaten-down of SSO/QLD/BSV.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~41% annualized return vs SPY ~21%, with Calmar ~1.05 and Sharpe ~1.19. Expect higher drawdowns (~39%), but faster compounding and larger upside when regimes flip, driven by contrarian RSI signals.

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.
