About

Aggressive, rules‑based rotation that rides leveraged tech in uptrends, buys sharp dips, and flips to VIX, inverse ETFs, Treasuries, or cash when momentum/trend weakens—using RSI, moving averages, and a KMLM managed‑futures filter. Very high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it chooses among: TQQQ/TECL/SPXL/SOXL (3x tech/S&P/semis) for upside; SQQQ/PSQ (short Nasdaq), TLT (Treasuries), BIL (cash‑like T‑bills), UVXY/VIXY (VIX funds) for defense. It reads “heat” (RSI), trends (20/200‑day MAs), and bond‑vs‑bear gauges. If trend is up and not overheated, it rides tech; if overheated it briefly holds VIX; if weak or breaking, it flips to shorts/bonds/cash. KMLM (managed‑futures ETF) is a safety traffic light.
CheckmarkValue prop
An aggressive, rules-based overlay across leveraged tech, inverses, bonds and VIX designed to diversify beyond the S&P. While out-of-sample results lag and drawdowns are larger, it offers non-correlated exposure for risk-tolerant portfolios.

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.
