About

Daily, rule-based, risk-on/risk-off plan: moves to T‑bills when overheated, buys 3× tech on dips or uptrends, and flips short tech when a managed‑futures “storm detector” (KMLM) warns of trouble; uses bonds/hedges in downtrends.
NutHow it works
It uses simple “thermometers” of market heat (RSI: a 0–100 hot/cold meter). If markets look too hot (>~79), it parks in BIL (T‑bills). If they look washed‑out (<~30), it buys 3× bull funds (TQQQ=Nasdaq, SPXL=S&P). Otherwise it checks the S&P 500’s 200‑day trend. In uptrends it rides tech (TECL tech, SOXL semis, TQQQ Nasdaq); in downtrends it prefers hedges (PSQ/SQQQ = short Nasdaq) and bonds. KMLM (a managed‑futures “storm detector”) helps flip long/short tech. Rebalanced daily; high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy aims for ~46% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.13 and built-in risk controls (T-bill hedges, futures filter) to navigate crises—accepting higher drawdowns (~41%).

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.
