About

A daily, rules-based risk-on/risk-off plan: ~80% rotates among leveraged S&P/Nasdaq/semiconductor bulls, bears, or T‑Bills using trend and an RSI “heat” gauge; ~20% tactically trades long/short Treasuries, gold, and USD. UVXY serves as a panic hedge.
NutHow it works
Daily: 1) If stocks look “too hot” (RSI>~80) or fear (UVXY) is spiking (RSI>~70), it moves to UVXY or cash‑like T‑Bills (BIL). 2) Else it runs 3 bots on SPY (S&P 500), QQQ (Nasdaq 100), SMH (semis): using trend (vs long‑term average) and RSI (0–100 heat gauge; >70 hot, <30 cold) to pick 3x bull, 3x bear, or short‑term bonds. 3) A 20% sidecar trades long/short Treasuries (TMF/TMV), plus gold, USD, and defensives by rate trend.
CheckmarkValue prop
Near-SPY upside with hedges and diversification. In OOS testing, it returned ~22.8% annualized vs SPY's 23.9%, with Calmar ~0.71. Hedges (UVXY, Treasuries, cash) help navigate volatility and diversify beyond SPY.

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.
