About

A daily, rules‑based “offense/defense” rotation: ride strong tech/semis with 3x ETFs in healthy markets, and quickly flip to hedges (inverse ETFs, bonds, cash, volatility) when signals show stress, using trends, RSI, and volatility cues.
NutHow it works
Daily, rules‑based switcher. It reads trend (short vs long averages) and “hot/cold” gauges (RSI) on stocks (SPY/QQQ) and bonds (TLT). If stocks look healthy and not overheated, it buys high‑octane funds like TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) or SOXL (3x semis). If overheated or falling fast, it flips to protection: SQQQ/SOXS (inverse), VXX (volatility), TMF/TMV (bond plays), or cash‑like BIL/SHY. It can also hold DBC (commodities), UGL (gold), or strong countries when they lead. A meta‑layer picks the best sub‑systems and rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Outperforms the S&P with higher upside: out-of-sample annualized return ~33% vs ~21%. A rules-based offense/defense rotation that captures leaders and hedges risk, aiming for stronger long-term growth.

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.
