About

A daily, high-octane switch. It shorts semiconductors or the S&P 500 when tech overheats or volatility surges; otherwise it owns either NVIDIA or Exxon—whichever shows the stronger recent trend.
NutHow it works
Daily rules: 1) If TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) is very hot over 10 days (RSI>79; RSI is a 0–100 “heat” score of recent gains), short semis via SOXS (3x inverse). 2) Else if TQQQ fell >13% in 6 days: if today jumped >6%, use SOXS; else buy NVDA. 3) Else if VIXM (volatility ETF) is hot (40‑day RSI>69), short the S&P 500 with SPXU (3x inverse). 4) Otherwise hold NVDA or XOM, whichever has the stronger 40‑day trend (higher RSI).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~44% vs SPY ~19%; Calmar ~1.14, Sharpe ~1.04. A daily tactical rotation that rides AI/tech momentum and volatility spikes, with 3x inverse ETFs for risk-off. Higher upside, but larger drawdowns.

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.
