About

A tactical switch. If broad markets look “overheated” on a 10‑day basis, it moves into volatility spike funds (UVXY/UVIX). Otherwise it runs leveraged tech: 2× MSFT or 2× AAPL if they lag QQQ, else 3× QQQ (TQQQ). Very high risk.
NutHow it works
It watches a 10‑day “heat meter” (RSI) on many broad market/sector funds. Near 80 = very hot. If any look very hot, it flips into UVXY/UVIX—funds that jump when market fear/volatility spikes. Otherwise it buys aggressive tech: whichever of Microsoft (MSFX) or Apple (AAPX) lagged QQQ yesterday; if neither lagged, it buys TQQQ (3× Nasdaq‑100). Uses daily‑reset leverage; very high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy aims for high growth by switching to leveraged tech when markets are not overheated and hedging with volatility during heat. It delivers ~32% annualized return vs SPY's ~17%, though it carries much larger drawdowns and higher beta.

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.
