About

A daily, rules-based “buy the dip” in big tech. If the market trend is up, pair scaled amounts of 2x Nasdaq (QLD) with SPY; if trend is down, pair with SHY. The deeper the dip in QQQ (lower 10‑day RSI), the more QLD it buys; no dip = SPY/SHY.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks trend and how “beat up” tech is. - Trend: If SPY is above its 200‑day average, it’s an uptrend; otherwise a downtrend. - Dip size: QQQ’s 10‑day RSI scores 0–100; lower = bigger dip. It buys more 2x Nasdaq (QLD) as RSI falls from 30→20, pairing it with SPY in uptrends or SHY (short‑term Treasuries) in downtrends. No dip = SPY/SHY only.

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.
