About

A two-ETF rule: use QQQ’s 10-day RSI. If RSI < 31, invest in QLD (leveraged Nasdaq-100 ETF). If RSI ≥ 31, invest in BIL (short-term Treasury ETF). Weights are equal within the chosen path, with no automatic rebalancing enabled.
NutHow it works
The system watches QQQ’s momentum using a 10-day RSI. If QQQ’s RSI is below 31, it takes a position in QLD (which amplifies QQQ’s daily moves). If RSI is 31 or higher, it takes a position in BIL (a very safe, short-term treasury fund). The chosen position is weighted equally according to the rule, but because the decision selects a single asset, you effectively hold that one ETF. There is no automatic rebalancing (rebalance: none), though a 5% corridor width is defined, which would only matter if rebalancing were enabled. In short: oversold QQQ -> levered Nasdaq exposure (QLD); otherwise -> cash-like exposure (BIL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: lower max drawdown (15.24% vs SPY's 18.76%), Calmar ~1.07, and steadier risk-adjusted returns (16.26% annualized vs SPY's 26.66% with Sharpe ~0.85 vs 1.57). Focused on downside control via RSI-driven moves.

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.
