About

Daily, it rotates among leveraged ETFs in biotech, semis, and Tesla/tech using simple heat checks. It rides strength, buys deep dips, and parks in cash or volatility during extremes. Very high risk and fast‑moving.
NutHow it works
Each day it picks among three themes: biotech bounce (LABU), Tesla/tech, or semiconductors. It chooses the stronger of Tesla/tech vs semis by recent 20‑day results. Simple checks drive decisions: RSI (0–100 speed of recent moves), moving averages (trend), and big 1‑day jumps. It then goes long, short, cash (SHV), or UVXY in extremes. Tickers: SOXL/SOXS=3x semis; LABU=3x biotech; TECL=3x tech; TSLL/TSLS=Tesla ±; IEF=7–10y Treas; PSQ=short Nasdaq.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.73 vs SPY 1.23; annualized return ~108% vs 21%; beta ~0.65; Calmar ~4.49 signals strong risk-adjusted gains, despite higher drawdowns. Daily rotation across leveraged tech/biotech/semis with hedges.

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.
