About

A fast, tactical rotation around tech/semis using 10‑day momentum and a 20‑day trend filter with KMLM as the yardstick. It flips among TECL/SOXL (bull), TECS (bear), and SVIX (short volatility). Very high risk: 3x funds and short‑vol exposure.
NutHow it works
It uses KMLM (a managed‑futures fund) as a yardstick. It compares 10‑day RSI (a 2‑week “heat” meter of recent ups vs downs) for semis/tech and the U.S. dollar against KMLM, then checks KMLM’s 20‑day moving average (a 1‑month trend line). If KMLM is above its 20‑day average, it goes defensive with TECS (3x tech bear). If KMLM is below, it buys either TECL or SOXL (the more beaten‑up), or—when KMLM looks stronger than semis—the stronger of TECL or SVIX (short volatility).
CheckmarkValue prop
High-risk crisis hedge: a tactical, levered tech/semis rotation using bear/short-vol signals to diversify SPY. Out-of-sample results are negative with large drawdowns—best kept small as a risk-tolerant satellite, not core SPY.

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.
