About

A daily, tactical gameplan for U.S. stocks: fade extreme heat with UVXY, buy big dips with leveraged longs, ride uptrends with QQQ, and in downtrends rotate into inverse Nasdaq, occasional quick longs, or defensive BTAL—using bonds as a risk gauge. High risk.
NutHow it works
Every day it checks four things, in this order: 1) Are stocks “too hot” short term? If yes, buy UVXY (a volatility play) to fade a pullback. 2) Are they “washed out”? If yes, buy the bounce (TQQQ or SPXL). 3) Is the S&P 500 in a long-term uptrend? If yes, hold QQQ to ride it. 4) If not, switch to a bear playbook: mostly short Nasdaq (PSQ/SQQQ), sometimes quick longs (QQQ/TQQQ) or defensive BTAL, guided by bond strength.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ≈44.7% vs ≈20% for the S&P, with Calmar ≈1.88. A Nasdaq-focused tactical rotation aims big upside while volatility and bond hedges help manage risk—though drawdowns can exceed the S&P.

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.
