About

Daily switches between 2× Nasdaq‑100 (QLD) and bonds (VBF) using an S&P 500 trend test and an “oversold” check (RSI) on QQQ—aggressive in uptrends or sharp dips, defensive otherwise.
NutHow it works
Each day: • If the S&P 500 (SPY) is in an uptrend—its ~21‑day average price is above its ~210‑day average—own QLD, a fund targeting 2× the daily move of the Nasdaq‑100 (QQQ). • Else, if QQQ looks “oversold” (RSI<30; a 0–100 gauge of recent weakness), still own QLD. • Otherwise, hold VBF, a conservative bond fund.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets 2x Nasdaq-100 exposure on uptrends or oversold dips, switching to bonds otherwise. OOS: ~70% annualized return, Sharpe ~2.94, drawdown ~2.4% - a stronger, lower-risk alternative to the S&P 500.

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.
