About

Aggressive, daily strategy that rides semiconductor/tech booms with 3x funds when trends are favorable and quickly flips to hedges (inverse ETFs, bond trades, volatility) when fear rises or rates shift. Uses simple “trend” and “hot/cold” signals; avoids K‑1 via PDBC.
NutHow it works
It’s a daily, “go with the flow” system. If fear spikes (using UVXY’s RSI, a simple hot/cold meter of recent moves), it parks in VXX briefly. If semiconductors trend up, it buys the strongest 3x tech/semis fund (SOXL, TQQQ, TECL, UPRO). If not, it shifts to defense or dip-buys. Big switches use bond trends (TLT) and stock‑vs‑commodity trends to pick TMF/TMV, inverse tech (SOXS/SQQQ/TECS), or cash‑like Treasurys (SHY/BIL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy offers big upside (≈110% annualized vs 28% for the S&P) with a Calmar of ≈2.33. It accepts higher drawdowns (≈47%) but excels in true trends and uses hedges to protect during risk-off.

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.
