About

A rule-based, one-position strategy. If stocks look overheated short term, it buys UVXY (a volatility spike play). Otherwise, it trends the Nasdaq-100 with 3x (TQQQ) or 2x (QLD), sometimes stepping to T‑Bills (BIL) after weak rebounds.
NutHow it works
Step 1: If many parts of the stock market look very “hot” short term (prices ran up fast), move 100% into UVXY, which tends to jump when stocks drop and volatility spikes. Step 2: Otherwise, ride the Nasdaq-100 trend with leverage: use 3x (TQQQ) or 2x (QLD) based on how strong/extended the uptrend is and whether there was a recent drop. If the trend looks weak after a drop, park in T‑Bills (BIL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Rule-based strategy blending leveraged Nasdaq-100 trends and volatility plays to seek outsized, risk-adjusted gains. Out-of-sample, Sharpe and Calmar exceed the S&P with strong upside potential; note higher drawdowns risk.

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.
