About

Rules-based switcher using SPY’s 200‑day trend and KMLM’s 20‑day trend as dials. It rotates among 3× tech bulls, volatility, inverse bonds, a defensive trio, or a 3× tech bear, with an RSI “heat gauge” to avoid chasing and to buy deep dips.
NutHow it works
Regime: SPY above its 200‑day avg = offense; below = defense. RSI (0–100 heat gauge) guides timing: too hot → VIXY; very cold in downtrends → buy dips. KMLM vs its 20‑day avg flips the core: if weak → risk‑on (pick stronger of TECL or SOXL); if firm → defensive (BTAL/TMV, or BTAL+SPLV+IEF; sometimes TECS). Tickers: TECL/SOXL/SPXL=3× tech/semis/S&P; TECS=3× short tech; VIXY=vol; TMV=3× short bonds; BTAL=anti‑beta; SPLV=low‑vol S&P; IEF=7–10y; KMLM=managed‑futures signal.
CheckmarkValue prop
Regime-aware rotation among tech, volatility, anti-beta, and defensives seeks tech rally upside with diversification. OOS: ~10.9% annualized; Sharpe ~0.51 vs SPY ~1.03. Note: higher bear-market drawdowns, but hedges help risk-off.

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.
