About

Mostly holds Apple when the broad market (SPY) trends up. In weak markets it tactically flips into 3x QQQ long, 3x QQQ short, or short‑term bonds using short‑term signals (RSI and 20‑day trend). Daily rebalanced; leveraged ETFs add high risk.
NutHow it works
1) Trend check: If SPY’s 21‑day average price is above its 210‑day average, hold Apple (AAPL). (“Average” = average of the last X days.) 2) Otherwise: If QQQ’s 10‑day RSI < 30, buy TQQQ (3x long QQQ). (RSI: 0–100 heat gauge; <30 = oversold.) 3) Otherwise: If QQQ is below its 20‑day average, pick the higher‑RSI of SQQQ (3x inverse QQQ) or BSV (short‑term bonds). 4) Otherwise hold AAPL. Rebalances daily; leveraged ETFs are very volatile.
CheckmarkValue prop
Lower beta (~0.89) and a regime-driven mix (Apple core, QQQ hedges) offer a distinct risk profile. OOS return ~19.1%, Sharpe ~0.65—strong risk-adjusted diversification relative to 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.
