About

Daily, small‑cap‑focused tactical strategy. It uses inflation trend and simple momentum/overbought‑oversold cues to switch between bullish or bearish small‑caps, long Treasuries, or gold—using leveraged ETFs when signals are strong.
NutHow it works
First it checks if inflation expectations (RINF) are trending up vs their 200‑day average. It then compares recent bond vs tech strength (BND vs QQQ) and looks at small‑caps (IWM) using RSI (a simple overbought/oversold gauge) and the 200‑day trend. Based on that, it flips daily among: TNA (3x long small‑caps), TZA (3x short), TMF (3x long Treasuries), IWM, or a defensive split in RWM (inverse small‑caps) and GLD (gold).
CheckmarkValue prop
Inflation-aware, regime-driven small-cap strategy aims for higher upside (~27% annualized) vs the S&P (~18%), with Treasuries/Gold hedges; stronger potential returns but larger drawdowns and volatility.

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.
