About

Rules-based plan that gets aggressive with 3x tech/Nasdaq in calm, rising markets, but flips to Treasuries, the U.S. dollar, and inverse/defensive ETFs when bonds weaken or rates rise—aiming to capture upside while cutting deep drawdowns. K‑1 free.
NutHow it works
1) Check bonds (BND) ~56 days. If up: Risk ON. If down: Risk OFF. Risk ON: If stocks are calm, rotate into 3x tech/Nasdaq funds (TECL/TQQQ). If not calm, park in Treasuries (SHY/IEF). It picks the one that fell the most lately (aiming for a bounce). Risk OFF: Check long Treasuries (TLT). If rates rising, use dollar (USDU) plus hedges/shorts (BTAL, SQQQ, TMV/TBT). If rates falling, own long Treasuries (TMF) with dollar and defensive stocks. Rebalance daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~53.8% annualized return vs S&P ~21%; Sharpe ~1.29; Calmar ~1.26. Expect big upside in calm markets with 3x tech exposure, while shifting to bonds/cash in stress to protect capital (K‑1 free).

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.
