About

A rules-based, tech‑tilted strategy that buys dips and rides trends, then quickly shifts to cash, Treasuries, gold, dollar, or volatility hedges in selloffs. Includes a managed‑futures diversifier (KMLM). Uses leveraged ETFs and fast signals—high risk.
NutHow it works
It’s an automatic rule-set. It rides big‑tech uptrends with turbo funds (TQQQ/TECL/SOXL), buys dips when a simple “speedometer” (RSI, 0–100) shows prices fell fast (~30), and cuts risk when that meter is very high (~80) or volatility spikes. In stress it moves to cash/bonds/gold/dollar or hedges (UVXY/SQQQ). It also uses KMLM (managed‑futures) when stocks aren’t leading. Uses leveraged/volatility ETFs—high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample upside is compelling: ~51% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.61 signaling strong risk-adjusted gains. Diversified hedges and managed futures aim to capture tech rallies while limiting 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.
