About

Rides big‑tech uptrends with 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ). If it gets overheated, parks in a volatility hedge (VIXY) plus cash. In downtrends, it either buys sharp dips or holds a balanced mix of VIX funds (long mid‑term, short short‑term).
NutHow it works
Decoder: TQQQ = 3x Nasdaq‑100 (big tech). VIXY = jumps in panics. VIXM = slower VIX. SVXY = rises when panic fades. BIL = T‑bills (cash‑like). 200‑day avg = long‑term trend. RSI (0–100 heat meter): >80 very hot, <30 very cold. Logic: If TQQQ is above its 200‑day avg, hold TQQQ unless RSI>80, then split into VIXY+BIL. If below, and RSI<30, buy TQQQ for a bounce; otherwise split into VIXM+SVXY.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets big-tech upside (≈62% annualized) with volatility hedges, delivering far more growth than SPY (≈23%) but with larger drawdowns (~38% vs ~19%). Calmar ~1.65 signals strong risk-adjusted 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.
