About

A daily, rules-based strategy that rides tech-led uptrends (sometimes with 2–3x funds), buys dips, and flips to defense (Treasuries, gold, cash, or short Nasdaq) when markets look overheated or fragile. Uses trend, momentum, and volatility signals.
NutHow it works
- If the market looks overheated (a “speedometer” of recent up vs down moves is very high), add a small “fear” hedge (funds that jump when fear rises) and/or move to Treasuries/gold. - If the long-term trend is up and credit looks healthy, own growth/tech (often QQQ and sometimes 2–3x funds). If trend is weaker, use unlevered funds. - If prices look washed-out, buy the dip (sometimes with 2–3x funds) for a rebound. - If risk worsens (bonds beating stocks, transports/homebuilders lag, or small-caps weak), rotate to defense: long Treasuries, gold, staples/utilities, cash, or short Nasdaq. - A small emerging-markets sleeve flips between bull and bear funds based on the same checks. - Rebalances daily. Uses leveraged and inverse ETFs; risk is high.
CheckmarkValue prop

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.
