About

An aggressive daily switcher: buys volatility on overbought “spikes,” buys 3x tech/semis on dips, shorts long bonds when rates jump, or parks in short Treasuries/cash. Final tie‑breaker: IEF beats PSQ → TQQQ; otherwise cash/PSQ. Very active and risky.
NutHow it works
Rebalances daily using RSI, a 0–100 “heat” score over 10–21 days (high=overheated, low=washed‑out). - Overheated markets → buy UVXY (volatility) to hedge a pullback. - Washed‑out → buy 3x tech/semis rebound plays (TQQQ, TECL, SOXL, SPXL). - If long bonds plunge, short them (TMV); else sit in short Treasuries (BSV/SHV). - Fallback: if bond strength (IEF) > short‑Nasdaq (PSQ), go TQQQ; else cash/PSQ. Note: KMLM appears in a label but isn’t actually traded.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.47 vs SPX ~1.01; Calmar ~3.77; annualized return ~97% vs ~18% for S&P. A disciplined, tactical, hedged approach that targets upside during volatility with robust risk controls.

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.
