About

Buys 3× S&P 500 or 3× Tech on short-term dips when markets are calm, shifts partly or fully into short-term Treasuries as volatility rises. Chooses the asset with the biggest recent pullback, but only takes risk in calmer regimes.
NutHow it works
It watches how choppy the S&P 500 is over about a month. If very calm, it goes 100% into whichever of these is most “sold off” lately: UPRO (3× S&P 500), TECL (3× Tech), or SHY (short‑term Treasuries). If somewhat choppy, it splits 50/50 between that pick and SHY. If very choppy, it parks 100% in SHY. “Sold off” is a pullback score (RSI): lower = bigger recent dip.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return about 33.7% vs ~22.6% for the S&P 500, with a disciplined risk-regime approach: switch to SHY in volatility and buy oversold 3x assets in calm markets. Higher upside with managed risk.

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.
