About

A daily, high‑octane swing strategy that fades overheated markets with UVXY, buys dips in 3x tech/sector ETFs, shifts to hedges in stress, or parks in T‑bills. It uses short‑term “heat” and drawdown signals and equal‑weights picks. Very high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks short‑term “heat” (RSI: high=overbought, low=oversold) and drawdowns on key stock/bond funds. If stocks look overheated, it buys UVXY (volatility spike play). If tech looks washed‑out, it buys 3x tech (TECL/TQQQ). If stocks or long bonds plunge, it shifts to hedges like inverse bond/stock funds or DBMF (trend‑following futures). Otherwise it buys a few beaten‑down 3x sector funds—or parks in T‑bills (BIL). Equal‑weighted. Very high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers outsized upside vs the S&P: ~92% annualized return vs ~16%, with Sharpe ~1.37 and Calmar ~3.12. Expect higher drawdowns, but the upside has been compelling.

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.
