About

A tech‑tilted, daily tactical strategy that rides stock uptrends with 3x ETFs, pairs with long Treasuries, and quickly shifts to T‑bills, short bonds, or volatility when “heat gauges” (RSI) and trends flip. High risk; not buy‑and‑hold.
NutHow it works
Daily, rules-based blend of 4 mini-systems. It first checks the S&P 500 trend (price vs long averages). If up: ride stocks (3x S&P/Nasdaq/semis: UPRO, TQQQ, SOXL) with long bonds (TMF). If bonds fall, short bonds (TMV) or hold T‑bills (BIL). It uses RSI—a 0–100 “heat gauge” of recent up vs down days—to fade extremes (buy dips, sell rips), sometimes buying volatility (UVXY/VIXY). In fast selloffs it shifts to SHY/UUP. In downtrends it runs a tamer version.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this tech-tilted strategy aims to outpace the S&P by delivering ~38% annualized return vs ~25% (S&P), with a Calmar ~1.0. It uses leveraged stock/bond sleeves and regime-driven hedges for big upside, accepting higher drawdowns.

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.
