About

A daily, rules‑based switcher: ride Nasdaq strength with a TQQQ+long‑Treasuries barbell; hide in cash or in U.S. dollar/short‑bond trades when stress hits. Uses simple heat gauges (RSI), trend filters, and a volatility spike trigger to cut risk.
NutHow it works
Daily checks: - If fear surges (UVXY heat high) → T‑bills (BIL). - If Nasdaq looks overheated (TQQQ heat high) → short‑term Treasuries (SHY). - Else choose: Bullish → a risk‑balanced mix of TQQQ + long Treasuries (TMF). Bearish → U.S. dollar (UUP) + short long bonds (TMV). Trend and “heat” gauges (RSI = overbought/oversold score) fine‑tune switches; rare UVXY pops after extreme strength.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 24.15% annualized return vs 22% for the S&P, with a disciplined Nasdaq barbell that rides tech rallies and uses built-in risk brakes (UVXY, cash, USD, Treasuries) to manage drawdowns.

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.
