About

A daily, rules-based plan that flips between leveraged plays on semiconductors or the S&P 500, a volatility fund, or T‑bills. It uses a fast Nasdaq gauge and simple signals (overbought/oversold, trend, bond risk) to decide when to go risk‑on or hide in cash-like T‑bills.
NutHow it works
Each day it reads a “heat gauge” from TQQQ (a very fast Nasdaq-100 fund). If ultra‑hot, it briefly bets against chip stocks (SOXS). If recently crashed, it may buy volatility (UVXY) or buy chip stocks (SOXL) if oversold/calm; else it parks in T‑bills (BIL). In normal times, if trend is up it uses a 4x S&P 500 note (SPYU); if trend/risk tests fail, it stays in T‑bills. Signals: overbought/oversold (RSI), trend (25‑day average), drawdowns, bond strength.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic, rules-based tactical strategy offering regime-aware alpha via fast tech/volatility signals and T-bill hedges. Out-of-sample return ~15.3%, diversification beyond the S&P, with upside in regimes where the S&P stalls.

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.
