About

Daily, tech‑tilted, risk‑on/risk‑off system. Uses a 200‑day trend filter, short‑term RSI bounces, and cross‑asset checks to lean into 2× Nasdaq (QLD) in uptrends, or rotate into oversold bonds/defensive sectors when conditions weaken.
NutHow it works
• Trend: If Nasdaq (QQQ) is above its 200‑day average, it’s risk‑on; otherwise hold one oversold “safe” fund (bonds/defensive) with the lowest RSI (0–100; low=recently weak). • Risk‑on: If 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ) is very oversold (2‑day RSI<20), buy two of the most volatile tech/Nasdaq funds for a bounce. Else compare Tech (XLK) vs KMLM (managed‑futures) by 10‑day RSI. If Tech wins, 20% stays in QLD (2× Nasdaq) and, if checks are positive, the other 80% too; otherwise that 80% goes to the oversold “safe” pick. If KMLM wins, use the “safe” pick.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample tests show this strategy delivers higher risk-adjusted returns and smaller drawdowns versus the S&P 500, thanks to a disciplined tech tilt, rapid risk-off rotations, and adaptive cross-asset checks.

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.
