About

Daily mix of “buy the dip” and trend regime. Buys TQQQ/SPXL/SOXL on washouts; flips to UVXY when markets look too hot; else rotates among 3x Nasdaq/Healthcare/(sometimes Financials) and 3x Treasuries or their inverses, or parks in T‑Bills. Very aggressive/high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks a simple 0–100 “hot/cold” score of recent price moves. If Nasdaq/S&P looks too hot (>80), it briefly buys fear (UVXY). If they look washed out (<30), it buys the dip (TQQQ/SPXL/SOXL). Otherwise, if the fear gauge is very hot, it parks in T‑Bills (BIL). If not, it picks a Bull or Bear basket by seeing if stocks beat commodities over many lookbacks (100–600 days), then weights picks by how calm they’ve been. Rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~38.5% vs the S&P 500 ~22.8%, with Sharpe ~1.13 and Calmar ~1.20. A regime-rotating, volatility-aware mix of 3x ETFs aims for bigger upside while balancing risk with hedges and cash-like safety prior to spikes.

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.
