About

A high-risk, tactical switcher among SPXL, SVXY, UVXY, BTAL, and sometimes SH. It buys UVXY when markets look overheated, buys beaten‑down 3x bulls on deep dips, favors SPXL/SVXY in calm uptrends, and shifts defensive when volatility rises.
NutHow it works
It switches 100% into one fund based on two ideas: heat and turbulence. - Heat: A 0–100 momentum gauge (RSI) spots when markets look overheated (>~80) or washed out (<~30). Overheated -> buy UVXY (spikes when fear jumps). Washed‑out tech -> buy the most beaten‑down 3x bull (TQQQ, SOXL, TECL, UDOW, or SPXL). - Turbulence: If daily swings are low and trends look up, hold SPXL (3x S&P 500) or SVXY (wins when fear fades). If swings are high or rising, move to BTAL (defensive) and sometimes SH (−1x S&P 500).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample it underperforms the S&P (-20.8% vs +24.8%) with larger drawdowns, so this strategy is best as a diversification/volatility-hedge sleeve, not a core equity bet—potentially uncorrelated in turbulent markets.

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.
