About

Daily tactical plan: buy 3× tech on sharp dips, hedge with volatility after big run‑ups, stay long tech when growth and credit lead, and otherwise rotate into oversold defensive sectors or bonds.
NutHow it works
It uses RSI, a 0–100 “hot/cold” score, on the Nasdaq‑100 (QQQ). - If QQQ is very cold, buy a 3× tech ETF (TECL). - If very hot, buy a volatility ETF (VIXY). - Else: if QQQ beats Utilities and corporate bonds (CORP) beat T‑bills (BIL), buy 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ). If not, either stay in TQQQ (when Treasuries beat “short QQQ”) or use a market‑neutral anti‑beta ETF (BTAL). - If Utilities win, buy the most oversold defensive sector or bond (e.g., XLP/XLV/XLU, BSV/TLT/LQD). Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
A tactical tech‑tilt satellite strategy with hedges designed to diversify and capture growth in tech regimes. However, out‑of‑sample data show large drawdowns and negative returns vs the S&P—riskier and not a core replacement.

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.
