About

Daily tactical switcher: rides strong tech/semiconductor uptrends with 3x funds, and quickly flips to volatility, inverse equity, or Treasury trades when markets look stretched or weak. Uses simple “heat” (RSI) and bond signals as triggers.
NutHow it works
Each day it: 1) Gauges stocks’ “heat” with a speedometer (RSI): high = overheated, low = oversold. 2) Uses bonds as a referee by comparing T‑bills (BIL) to longer Treasuries (IEF/TLH/TLT). If risk‑on, it rides fast movers with 3x tech/semis (TQQQ, TECL, SOXL, UPRO). If overheated or falling, it flips to UVXY/VIXY (volatility), 3x bears (SQQQ, SPXS, SOXS), or Treasury trades (TMF/TMV). Picks by recent momentum; rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~32.9% vs S&P ~21.4%, powered by fast tech/semis bets and smart hedges (bonds/volatility). Greater upside with active risk management; note larger drawdowns (~37%) in stressed regimes.

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.
