About

A daily rules-based switch that dials risk up or down using simple trend and “overheated” checks on SPYG/SPY, rotating among 3x bull funds (TECL/TQQQ/UPRO), plain stock ETFs (DIA/IWM), or mostly T‑Bills with small hedges (SH/PSQ).
NutHow it works
Checks daily: • If US growth (SPYG) is above its 21‑day average, then: — If the “overheated” score (RSI, 0–100) is <80 → buy 3x TECL/TQQQ/UPRO equally. — Else → hold DIA and IWM. • If SPYG isn’t above trend: — If SPY is above its 2‑day average: if 5‑day <10‑day → ~80% BIL + ~20% SH; else → UPRO. — If SPY is below its 2‑day average: if short‑term RSI > long‑term RSI → BIL + small PSQ; else → TQQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers ~77% annualized return vs the S&P 500’s ~24%, Calmar ~2.14, and Sharpe ~1.33, with higher drawdowns (~36% vs ~19%) but substantially more upside in growth regimes via tactical leverage and hedges.

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.
