About

A bear‑market hedge: usually in T‑Bills, but when the S&P 500 breaks its long‑term trend it tactically shorts (or occasionally goes long) the Nasdaq using leveraged ETFs, guided by “hot/cold” readings and trend filters.
NutHow it works
Purpose: a bear‑market hedge that mostly parks in BIL (cash‑like T‑Bills). Brakes: if markets look very hot (>79) or very weak (<30) on a 0–100 short‑term heat meter (RSI), stay in BIL. Switch: if SPY (U.S. stocks) falls below its 200‑day average, it tactically shorts or (sometimes) goes long the Nasdaq using PSQ/SQQQ (−1x/−3x) or QQQ/TQQQ (+1x/+3x). A 20‑day trend check and whether Treasuries (TLT/IEF) look stronger than the short fund guide the side. Two similar signals are blended, favoring the steadier one. Daily rebalance.

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.
