About

Daily switcher between Bitcoin (GBTC), 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), and cash (BIL). Buys Bitcoin on uptrend unless it’s too “hot.” If not in Bitcoin, rides Nasdaq only when trends are favorable and volatility is contained; otherwise parks in cash.
NutHow it works
Each day it chooses one holding: Bitcoin (GBTC), 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), or cash-like T‑Bills (BIL). 1) If Bitcoin looks extremely “hot,” go to cash. If Bitcoin’s short-term trend is up, own Bitcoin. 2) Otherwise, consider TQQQ: avoid it when it’s overheated or volatility is spiking; own it when tech is trending up and markets look calm; else hold cash.
CheckmarkValue prop
High upside with risk controls. Out-of-sample annualized return ~60.5% vs ~21.5% for the S&P; Sharpe ~1.14; Calmar ~1.52. Dynamic BTC/tech exposure plus cash buffers aims to ride rallies and avoid crashes, delivering stronger risk-adjusted gains than the S&P.

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.
