About

A tactical “risk-on/off” switch: buy 3x semis after peak fear, use UVXY when markets look overheated, ride uptrends with 2x S&P 500, and hide in gold/bonds/cash during downtrends.
NutHow it works
It rotates among four choices based on simple signals: - SOXL (3x semiconductor stocks), UVXY (fear gauge), SSO (2x S&P 500), or a defensive mix: GLD (gold), TLT (long Treasuries), BIL (T‑bills). - RSI = a heat meter of recent price speed; very high = overheated. - If UVXY itself is extremely hot (10‑day RSI>88), bet on a snap-back with SOXL. - Else, if SPY/QQQ/XLP look overheated (very high RSI), hold UVXY for a pullback. - Else, if the S&P 500 is in an uptrend (price above 200‑day average), hold SSO. - Otherwise, hold GLD/TLT/BIL equally. Trades only when signals change.
CheckmarkValue prop
Regime-based rotation aims for upside with leverage (SSO/SOXL) and volatility hedges (UVXY) plus a bear-defense sleeve for diversification beyond SPY. Note: out-of-sample results are negative with larger drawdowns; best for highly risk-tolerant, sophisticated investors.

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.
