About

A daily, high-octane rotation around leveraged tech. After sharp QQQ drops, it splits into a crash playbook (cash + volatility or semis) plus a core TQQQ system. Otherwise it rides or briefly fades TQQQ based on trend and short-term overbought/oversold signals.
NutHow it works
Daily checks if QQQ fell >5% in 10 days. If yes, split 50/50: a crash sleeve buys BIL (T‑Bills) + UVXY (bet on volatility) when vol is rising, or SOXL (3x semis) if calm; the other half runs the core rules. If no drop, 100% core. Core: If SPY > 200‑day avg, usually hold TQQQ (3x Nasdaq); if it looks overheated (via RSI, a 0–100 momentum gauge), briefly use UVXY. If SPY < 200‑day, rotate among TECL/UPRO (3x tech/S&P), SQQQ (3x inverse Nasdaq) or TLT (long Treasuries) on short‑term swings.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: OOS Sharpe ~1.36 vs SPY 1.22; OOS annualized return ~77% vs ~22%; Calmar ~2.32. Higher drawdowns ~33% vs ~19% in SPY, but with much bigger upside in tech and a volatility hedge plus disciplined risk controls.

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.
