About

Daily, it presses tech via TQQQ when the market and XLK trend beat KMLM; otherwise it hedges or runs a tactical Treasury sleeve (TMF/TMV), with fallbacks to BND/AGG/TLT or BIL. Multiple trend/volatility brakes manage risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it: - Checks trend: if the S&P 500 (SPY) is above its 200‑day average, it’s “risk‑on.” - Risk‑on: compares tech (XLK) vs KMLM (a managed‑futures trend fund). If tech momentum and RSI (a simple hot/cold gauge) look good, it holds 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ). If not, it hedges with short tech (QID) or shifts to long Treasuries (TMF). - Risk‑off: runs a bond playbook that flips between long/short long‑term Treasuries (TMF/TMV) via trend/volatility checks; else defaults to core bonds (BND/AGG/TLT) or T‑bills (BIL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic, regime-switching overlay that trims SPY beta (~0.36) and leans to Treasuries when risk rises. It adds diversification and risk controls for steadier, defensible risk-adjusted exposure versus the S&P 500.

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.
