About

Daily switches between TQQQ and SOXL by picking the one with the smaller worst decline over the last ~9 days. Focused on 3x tech/semiconductor ETFs; aims to hold the less battered option each day.
NutHow it works
Each day it compares two very risky funds: TQQQ (aims for 3x the daily move of the Nasdaq‑100, big tech) and SOXL (3x daily move of semiconductor stocks). It looks back ~9 trading days and measures each fund’s worst drop from a recent high (“max drawdown”). It then buys the one with the smaller drop and repeats daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~25.7% annualized vs ~16.8% for the S&P, by daily rotating between TQQQ and SOXL to pick the less-damaged. Higher upside but bigger drawdowns and volatility—fit for risk-tolerant investors.

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.
