About

Rule-based switch: hedge with UVXY when tech looks overheated, buy TQQQ on sharp dips, split TQQQ/GLD in uptrends, use SPMO if momentum holds in weak markets, otherwise stay in GLD. Uses leveraged/volatility ETFs, so risk can be high.
NutHow it works
Uses QQQ as a market thermometer. If its 10‑day RSI (a 0–100 “heat” gauge) >80 (too hot), buy UVXY (spikes when stocks fall). If RSI <30 (washed‑out), buy TQQQ (3× Nasdaq). Otherwise: if QQQ > its 100‑day average (uptrend), hold 50% TQQQ + 50% GLD (gold). If not, but SPMO > its 50‑day average, hold SPMO (S&P 500 momentum). Else hold GLD.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: about 82% annualized return vs ~32% for the S&P 500, Calmar ~16.8, and solid risk-adjusted performance. Higher upside potential with disciplined risk controls—beats the S&P 500 on growth with favorable risk metrics.

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.
