About

Always 100% in one 3x ETF, flipping between S&P 500 (UPRO/SPXU) or Nasdaq‑100 (TQQQ/SQQQ) based on very short‑term signals from SPY’s moving averages and RSI. Extremely aggressive; expect big swings both up and down.
NutHow it works
Moving average = average price over last X days. RSI = 0–100 score of how fast price has been rising/falling. 1) If SPY’s price ≥ its 2‑day average, use S&P 500: if 5‑day ≥ 10‑day average → 3x long (UPRO); else → 3x short (SPXU). 2) Otherwise use Nasdaq‑100: if SPY’s 3‑day RSI ≥ 21‑day RSI → 3x short (SQQQ); else → 3x long (TQQQ). Holds one ETF at a time.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic 3x rotation between S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 using ultra-short momentum signals. A tactical sleeve for rapid market swings and diversification vs. SPY; historically positive out-of-sample returns, but with higher drawdowns and volatility.

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.
