About

Daily, high‑octane swing strategy that uses bond vs stock “heat” to flip between 3x semiconductor/tech bulls, 3x bears to fade rallies, or short‑term Treasuries when the S&P 500 looks overheated.
NutHow it works
It reads simple hot/cold scores (RSI: 0–100; >70=hot, <30=cold) on bonds and stocks. • If longer Treasuries (IBTK) beat T‑bills (BIL), it rides semiconductors via SOXL (3x bull) unless the S&P 500 is too hot; then it parks in SHY (short‑term Treasuries). • Otherwise it trades contrarian: when stocks run hot vs bonds it uses SOXS/SQQQ (3x bears); when stocks look weak it buys the dip via SOXL/TECL (3x bulls). Rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Rules-based strategy focused on semis/tech offers outsized out-of-sample upside. Annualized return ~59% vs SPY ~23%, but with higher volatility and drawdowns. Best for risk-tolerant investors seeking tech leadership and diversification.

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.
