About

Rules-based, Nasdaq‑100–focused strategy. Buys 2–3x QQQ in normal/oversold markets, shifts to utilities or gold on weakness, and to T‑bills + long‑vol (UVXY) when overheated. Uses 10‑day RSI and 30/200‑day trends. High volatility.
NutHow it works
1) Check QQQ’s 10‑day RSI (0–100 short‑term “heat gauge”). If >79: hold 40% UVXY (spikes when stocks drop) + 60% BIL (T‑bills). If <31: hold 100% TQQQ (3x QQQ). 2) Otherwise use SPY’s trend: If above 200‑day avg: above 30‑day → 100% QLD (2x QQQ), else → 100% UPW (2x Utilities). If SPY ≤ 200‑day: above 30‑day → 100% QLD, else → 100% GLD (gold). Trades on signal changes.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic Nasdaq-100 strategy blends leveraged tech exposure with RSI-driven hedges (UVXY/BIL) and defensive sleeves (utilities, gold) to capture upside while improving risk-adjusted metrics (Calmar ~1.70) vs the S&P 500 in volatile markets.

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.
