About

A daily, rules-based blend: a small tactical Nasdaq/hedge sleeve that flips between QQQ/TQQQ and simple hedges (PSQ/VIXY) using “heat,” trend, and bond/inflation cues, plus a steadier core in LLY, NVO, COST and PGR/GE.
NutHow it works
Daily rules drive two sleeves. 1) Tactical: If short-term “heat” (RSI, a 0–100 speed/heat meter) says markets are too hot, buy a volatility hedge (VIXY); if too cold, buy quick-bounce sectors (XLK, XLF); sometimes hold gold. Then pick a playbook: if inflation and the S&P 500 are in uptrends (vs 200‑day averages), favor QQQ/TQQQ; if trends break, flip to simple hedges (PSQ), guided by bond‑vs‑cash checks. 2) Core: Stay in LLY, NVO, COST and PGR or GE, sized by stability.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, rules-based Nasdaq tilt with a stable core and hedges. Targets higher annualized returns (~24.6%) with Calmar ~1.11 and inflation-aware risk controls, delivering better risk-adjusted upside 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.
