About

Chase strength with 3x semiconductors when signals are favorable, and switch to Treasuries, volatility, and other safe‑havens when warnings flash. Short‑term “overbought/oversold” signals fine‑tune entries and hedges.
NutHow it works
Goal: seek boosted gains with a 3x semiconductor fund (SOXL) and cut damage by pivoting to long Treasuries (TMF) and volatility hedges (UVXY/VIXM). Main canary: if broad bonds (BND) lag T‑bills (BIL), use a short‑term RSI “heat meter” on the S&P 500 (SPY). Too hot (>75) → UVXY; too cold (<30) → SOXL; otherwise hold the 4 best safe‑havens (USD, TMF, gold/commodities, defensives). If bonds lead, check trend (VWO) and lumber vs gold (WOOD vs GLD): Risk‑on → SOXL unless the Nasdaq (QQQ) is overheated (RSI>80), then UVXY. Risk‑off → mostly TMF.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~45.9% annualized return vs SPY ~22.1%; risk-adjusted metrics solid (Sharpe ~1.04, Calmar ~0.90). Dynamic hedging and regime-switching aim for bigger upside with prudent safe-haven 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.
