About

QQQ‑first with a trend filter and buy‑the‑dip twist: own QQQ in uptrends or on oversold dips; otherwise rotate into the most beaten‑down defensive option among XLP (staples), XLU (utilities), or VBF (bond fund). Rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
It watches QQQ (the Nasdaq‑100, heavy in big tech). Trend test: if QQQ’s 50‑day avg price is above its 200‑day, it’s an uptrend. Uptrend: hold QQQ when 20‑day results are strong or when QQQ looks “oversold” (RSI<30; a simple gauge where below 30 = washed‑out). Otherwise, hold the single most beaten‑down defensive fund: XLP (consumer staples), XLU (utilities), or VBF (a bond fund). Downtrend: only buy QQQ when oversold; else use that defensive pick. Checked daily; one holding at a time.
CheckmarkValue prop
Tech‑led upside with built‑in risk controls: a QQQ‑first strategy that rides uptrends, buys dips, and rotates to defensives. Out‑of‑sample Calmar ~2.13 signals strong risk‑adjusted performance and downside protection vs. 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.
