About

Fast, rules-based trading of leveraged tech, S&P 500, VIX and Treasury ETFs. Buys stock bulls when oversold, buys VIX when overheated, rides trends when calm, and parks in cash after sharp drops. Daily, very aggressive.
NutHow it works
Daily, it blends 3 modules. First, a safety check: if stocks just fell hard, hold cash (BIL). Otherwise it reads a hot/cold score (RSI 0–100): very hot → buy VIX-up (UVXY/UVIX/VIXY); very cold → buy 3x stock bulls (TQQQ/TECL/UPRO); calm uptrend → ride tech (TQQQ). A bond switch flips between 3x long/short Treasuries (TMF/TMV). A volatility module often shorts VIX (SVIX) in normal times, or parks in cash.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy yields 32.7% annualized return vs SPY’s 21.2%, with 8.7% max drawdown vs 16.2%, Sharpe ~1.35 vs ~1.01, and Calmar ~3.74—meaning higher risk-adjusted upside and superior downside protection.

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.
