About

A fast, rules‑based swing strategy that flips between 3x tech/semis, Treasury trades, and hedges (SQQQ/VXX) using simple “hot/cold” signals from bonds (TLT), stocks (RSI), commodities, and volatility. Very aggressive; expect sharp swings.
NutHow it works
- Checks fear first: if market fear spikes (a volatility ETF’s “hot/cold” meter is very hot), it buys protection (VXX) or inverse tech (SQQQ). - Uses long‑Treasury ETF (TLT) as a rates compass: falling rates → can own TMF; rising rates/overbought → favor TMV/defense. - Reads stocks’ mood with RSI (a hot/cold meter): too hot → hedge; too cold → buy a rebound (TECL/SOXL) if bonds confirm. - Picks 1 ETF with the best recent 5–7 day move (or most beaten‑down) and rotates often. Uses PDBC to avoid K‑1 in commodities.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~104% annualized return vs ~24% S&P; Calmar ~2.12; Sharpe ~1.28. Rapid rotation + hedges aim for higher growth with controlled risk—though drawdowns can exceed 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.
