About

A daily, rules-based strategy built around TQQQ. It rides tech uptrends, buys deep dips, hedges when markets get too hot, and steps to T-Bills or volatility. It also swing-trades semiconductors and may use inverse Nasdaq or Treasuries in downtrends.
NutHow it works
Daily it rotates among: TQQQ (3x Nasdaq-100), cash-like BIL (T-Bills), volatility hedge VIXY (tends to rise in panics), 3x semis (SOXL/SOXS), inverse Nasdaq (SQQQ), or long Treasuries (TLT). It checks trend (price vs moving average), “heat” (RSI: 0–100; >70 hot, <30 cold), size of recent drops, and bond signals. Calm uptrends: ride TQQQ. Big drops: buy the dip unless bonds are stressed; else BIL. Too hot: park in BIL+VIXY. Downtrends: may use SQQQ/TLT. Also swing-trades semis.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: 26.34% annualized return vs SPY 22.21%, driven by tactical 3x Nasdaq exposure plus hedges (bonds/volatility). Higher upside and proactive risk controls, but expect larger drawdowns in crises versus the S&P.

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.
