About

A fast, tactical switcher: it bets on a volatility spike via UVXY when markets look overheated, buys beaten‑down tech/semis/S&P/biotech for rebounds, and otherwise rotates into diversifiers like KMLM, FTLS, and UUP. Uses leveraged/vol ETFs.
NutHow it works
Monitors a short‑term “hot/cold” score (RSI) on many indexes. If very hot, it buys UVXY (a fund that jumps when stocks wobble). If not, it hunts for cold spots; if tech/semis/S&P/biotech are weak, it buys a bull fund (TECL/SOXL/SPXL/LABU) for a bounce. Otherwise it compares tech vs KMLM (a trend‑following, multi‑asset ETF): if tech wins, it buys the beaten‑down of TECL/SOXL/SVIX; if KMLM wins, it rotates into KMLM/FTLS/UUP.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: 16.4% annualized return with ~0.58 Sharpe. Volatility-timing via UVXY and rebounds in beaten-down tech/semis, plus diversifiers (KMLM/FTLS/UUP) offer risk-adjusted upside and diversification beyond the S&P 500.

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.
