About

A daily tactical strategy that swings between leveraged stock ETFs, inverse Nasdaq hedges, and a volatility spike fund. It uses overbought/oversold readings (RSI), long‑term trend, and bond/volatility cues to decide. Very aggressive and high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks if markets look “too hot” or “too cold” using RSI (a 0–100 speed gauge: >~80 very hot, <~30 very cold) on the S&P 500, global giants, tech, value, banks and communications. Too hot: buy a volatility spike fund (UVXY) plus a defensive anti‑beta fund (BTAL). Too cold: buy 3× stock funds (TQQQ/UPRO) for a rebound. Else use trend: above 200‑day and volatility easing → 3× S&P (SPXL), else T‑Bills (BIL). In downtrends, short the Nasdaq (SQQQ/PSQ) or briefly go long for bear rallies, guided by bond strength. Rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample this strategy offers higher risk-adjusted gains vs the S&P: Sharpe ~1.11 vs ~0.95, annualized return ~55% vs ~17%, Calmar ~2.35. Expect higher drawdowns (~23.6%), but stronger upside and compounding potential.

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.
