About

A gold‑only, daily‑rebalanced strategy that toggles between UGL (+2x) and GLL (−2x) using moving‑average trends and RSI extremes—ride the trend, fade overheated spikes. Leverage adds high risk and potentially large swings.
NutHow it works
It switches between two gold funds: UGL (seeks +2x gold’s daily move) and GLL (seeks −2x). It checks UGL’s moving‑average crossovers (50>200, else 20>50, else 5>10) to label trend. In uptrends it holds UGL; in downtrends it holds GLL. It also watches RSI, a 0–100 “heat” gauge: when very high (60–99.9, threshold depends on trend) it flips to GLL; if very low (<30 in downtrends) it flips to UGL. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Gold FTLT trades daily +2x/-2x bets on UGL/GLL with MA/RSI to ride trends and fade spikes. In out-of-sample tests it tends to capture trend upside, shield against drawdowns, and add gold diversification 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.
