About

Rules-driven rotation among 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), 3x Treasuries (TMF), volatility hedges (UVXY/VIXM), and defensive assets. Uses canary signals plus an RSI heat gauge to buy dips, fade overheated markets, and lean into safe havens when stress rises.
NutHow it works
Goal: catch upside with less pain. It checks “canaries” to size risk, then uses an RSI heat gauge (0–100) to buy dips or hedge when too hot. If bonds (BND) trail T‑bills (BIL), it runs an RSI catcher: SPY>75→UVXY; <30→TQQQ; else a momentum mix of UUP (USD), TMF (3x Treas), DBC (commodities), UGL (2x gold), IEO (oil), XLU (utilities), VIXM (vol). If canaries look better, it favors TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) unless overhot, then UVXY; or pairs TMF with TQQQ/vol in risk‑off.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this rules-driven strategy aims for higher upside (≈35% annualized) vs the S&P 500 (≈22%), using canaries and RSI for risk control plus volatility hedges. Strong growth with lower beta, though drawdowns can be larger in stress.

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.
