About

Aggressive, rules‑based strategy that rides tech‑led uptrends with leveraged ETFs, buys dips, and scales into volatility hedges when markets overheat. In weak markets it moves to cash/bonds or inverse funds and can switch to KMLM for diversification.
NutHow it works
Rules-based, tech-tilted. Steps: 1) Trend check: if the S&P 500 is above its 200‑day average, it’s risk‑on; else risk‑off. 2) Heat (RSI, a 0–100 “hotness” meter): buy dips when cold (<30); hedge when hot (>80). 3) Risk‑on: hold leveraged tech (TQQQ/TECL/SOXL); if too hot, add fear hedges (UVXY/VIXY/VIXM), scaled up as heat rises. 4) Risk‑off: move to cash/Treasuries or inverse funds. 5) If KMLM trends better than tech, switch to KMLM.
CheckmarkValue prop
Diversified, rules-based strategy that rides tech rallies but hedges when markets heat up, offering crisis diversification and systematic risk control. In out-of-sample testing it delivers positive risk-adjusted results (Calmar ~1.02) 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.
