About

All‑in, event‑driven swing system. Fades euphoria via UVXY, buys panic with 3x equity ETFs, and otherwise toggles between turbo tech (FNGU) and diversifiers (KMLM/FTLS/UUP). Uses RSI to time extremes. Very high risk and frequent switching.
NutHow it works
RSI is a 0–100 “speedometer” for recent price moves: >80 = overheated, <30 = washed‑out. If many stock/sector funds look overheated, go 100% to UVXY (spikes when markets fall). If UVXY itself just spiked, rotate to VIXM (calmer vol) or SPXL (3x S&P) by market tone. If nothing’s overheated, buy big dips in 3x tech/semis/S&P. If no dips, either go turbo tech (FNGU) when tech leads, or pick a calmer diversifier (KMLM/FTLS/UUP) with the lowest recent volatility.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.45 vs S&P 1.27; Calmar ~4.0; annualized return ~104% vs ~26%. Superior risk-adjusted growth and crisis resilience from volatility timing, with higher upside and modestly larger drawdowns.

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.
