About

Tech‑tilted. If SPY is weak, it buys sharp dips in big‑tech/semis with 3x ETFs; else toggles long/short Nasdaq via short‑term trend and a bonds‑vs‑bear gauge. If SPY is strong, ride TQQQ/SOXL unless overheated, then hedge with volatility or Treasuries.
NutHow it works
Step 1: Regime. Is SPY (S&P 500) below its 200‑day average? If yes, be cautious. Step 2: Dip buys. When a 0–100 “hot/cold” meter (RSI) says big tech or semis are washed out, buy 3x bulls (TQQQ/TECL/SOXL/UPRO). Step 3: If no dip, choose long QQQ or short (PSQ/SQQQ) using the 20‑day trend and a fear check: bonds (TLT) strong vs bear ETF (SQQQ) = risk‑on. If SPY is above its 200‑day, hold TQQQ+SOXL unless overheated, then shift to volatility (UVXY/VIXY) or long bonds (TMF).
CheckmarkValue prop
Tech-heavy, regime-driven strategy aims for outsized gains: oos annualized return ~77% vs SPY ~16%, Sharpe ~1.10 vs ~0.87, Calmar ~1.28. Higher swings and drawdowns, but far stronger upside when tech leads.

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.
