About

Own TQQQ in uptrends; if it gets too hot (RSI>80), flip to VIXM. In downtrends, sit in BIL; if deeply oversold (RSI<25), take a bounce trade with TECL. Mix of trend-following with contrarian moves at extremes.
NutHow it works
It watches TQQQ (a 3x version of the Nasdaq‑100). A 200‑day EMA (a long‑term average that flags trend) sets the regime. - Above it: hold TQQQ, unless TQQQ’s RSI>80 (RSI is a 0–100 “heat” gauge). If >80, switch to VIXM (benefits from volatility spikes). - Below it: hold BIL (T‑bills), unless RSI<25 (very washed‑out). If <25, buy TECL (3x tech) for a bounce.
CheckmarkValue prop
A rules-based, 100% sleeve strategy blending trend-following with volatility hedges. Out-of-sample it posts ~71% annualized return with Calmar ~1.82, using VIX hedges to defend drawdowns and offer superior risk-adjusted upside vs. the S&P 500.

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.
