About

Aggressive swing strategy. Buys 3x Nasdaq/tech/semis in uptrends or deep dips, and quickly flips to hedges (UVXY, 3x inverse) or Treasuries when markets overheat or trends weaken. Built on a simple trend filter and overbought/oversold cues.
NutHow it works
We split the money 70/30 across two “bots.” Both try to ride strong trends, buy sharp dips, and hedge when things get too hot. - Offense: buy 3x growth funds (TQQQ=Nasdaq, TECL=Tech, SOXL=Semis; sometimes SPXL=3x S&P) when the market is rising or very oversold (a short‑term “too beaten down” signal). - Defense: if the market overheats or fear jumps (UVXY=“fear” fund), shift to UVXY, 3x inverse funds (SQQQ/SOXS), or short‑term Treasuries (BSV/SHY/BIL). A basic trend filter (SPY above its 200‑day average) decides when offense is allowed; otherwise we cut risk or hold Treasuries (TLT/BSV).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample shows big upside: ~80% annualized vs ~23% S&P, with solid risk-adjusted Sharpe (~1.40) and Calmar (~1.87). An adaptive, hedged 3x tech/semis strategy aims for higher gains with protection in stress.

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.
