About

Rides the Nasdaq‑100 with 2x leverage in strong uptrends or on sharp dips; otherwise shifts to the most oversold defensive ETF (and sometimes cash). Signals come from QQQ; positions rebalance daily.
NutHow it works
It uses QQQ (Nasdaq‑100) as a thermometer and QLD (its 2x version) to invest. 1) If QQQ’s 50‑day average price is above its 200‑day (uptrend) AND its last ~20 days were solidly positive, buy QLD. 2) If QQQ looks short‑term “oversold” (RSI<30), buy QLD for a bounce. 3) Otherwise, park in one defensive ETF—Staples (XLP), Utilities (XLU), or a bond fund (VBF)—whichever is most “oversold.” Rebalanced daily; may hold some cash when defensive.
CheckmarkValue prop
Cap Nasdaq-100 upside with 2x leverage on uptrends or dips, then rotate to oversold defensives. Out-of-sample Sharpe ~0.97 and Calmar ~1.51 offer solid risk-adjusted performance vs SPY with regime-aware risk controls.

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.
