About

Daily, buy QQQ when it looks washed out (10‑day RSI ≤30). Otherwise rotate to a defensive choice—XLP (consumer staples) or VBF (investment‑grade bonds)—whichever is more oversold. One holding at a time; no shorting or leverage.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks QQQ (a tech‑heavy Nasdaq‑100 fund). If its 10‑day RSI—a 0–100 gauge of recent selling/buying—falls to 30 or below (oversold), it buys QQQ. Otherwise it holds one defensive fund: XLP (consumer‑staples stocks) or VBF (investment‑grade bonds), choosing whichever has the lower RSI. Always 100% in that one fund.
CheckmarkValue prop
Defensive, 100% in one asset. Out-of-sample max drawdown 7.68% vs ~13.7% for the S&P 500; Calmar 2.45 and strong risk-adjusted performance. Raw return lower (18.82% vs 26.55%), but you gain downside protection and simplicity.

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.
