About

Rides leveraged U.S. tech unless a managed-futures fund (KMLM) is both stronger than tech and in an uptrend; then it parks in T-bills (BIL). Uses a 10-day RSI comparison and a 20-day trend filter. Daily rebalanced; high risk when in TECL.
NutHow it works
Daily check: Compare recent strength of U.S. tech (XLK) vs a managed-futures fund (KMLM: trend-following across commodities, rates, currencies). Strength = RSI, a gauge of how much price has risen vs fallen over ~2 weeks. If tech is stronger, buy TECL (3x leveraged tech). If not, see if KMLM is above its 20-day average (an uptrend). If yes, hold BIL (T-bills/cash). If no, still buy TECL. Rebalances daily; TECL is very volatile.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 47.6% annualized return vs SPY 18.2%, with adaptive risk-off and TECL exposure on tech rallies. Daily rebalanced—higher growth potential, but larger drawdowns than 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.
