About

A daily risk-on/risk-off playbook: use 3x tech/Nasdaq or S&P when trends are strong and calm, park in T‑bills when fear or overheating shows, and scale into dips after sharp selloffs. Focused on tech leadership with many safety brakes.
NutHow it works
It’s a rule-based, daily checkup that flips between risky growth funds and cash-like T‑bills. - When trends are strong and calm, it rides 3x tech/Nasdaq or S&P (TQQQ, TECL, UPRO). - If fear rises (VIXY up), markets overheat (big 1‑day pops), or trends break, it hides in BIL. - After sharp drops, it scales in slowly using RSI (a 0–100 “heat” gauge).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~28.3% annualized vs ~23.4% for SPY, Calmar ~1.02. Tech-led with risk controls and dynamic hedges aims higher upside with disciplined drawdowns—though max drawdown can exceed SPY in stressed markets.

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.
