About

A daily, high‑octane switch: usually 3× long tech (TECL) when stocks look stronger; flips to a mix that bets against long Treasuries and the Nasdaq (TBF/TBT/PSQ/QID) when a trend‑following fund (KMLM) looks stronger and is in an uptrend.
NutHow it works
Three equal slices watch tech (XLK), the S&P 500 (SPY), and semis (SMH). Daily per slice: if that index’s short‑term strength (RSI = 0–100 momentum score) beats KMLM’s (a trend‑following futures fund), buy TECL (3× tech). If not—and KMLM is below its 20‑day average—still buy TECL. Only when KMLM is stronger and above its 20‑day average, hold equal parts of inverse bond and inverse Nasdaq funds (TBF, TBT, PSQ, QID). Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge vs SPY: ~96% annualized return vs ~19%, Sharpe 1.33 vs 1.12, Calmar ~1.93. Regime-switching with a 3x Tech tilt and defensive inverses aims for big upside with strong risk-adjusted returns.

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.
