About

Daily, it checks whether semiconductors are outperforming defensive funds. If so, it goes risk‑on into 3× tech (TQQQ, TECL); if not, it moves to T‑bills (BIL). Uses RSI (a simple recent‑gains score). Very high risk when in 3× ETFs.
NutHow it works
Each day it asks: Are chip stocks (SMH) showing stronger recent gains than two defensive funds? It compares a 10‑day “strength score” (RSI: higher = stronger) of SMH vs WTMF (managed‑futures). If yes, buy TQQQ and TECL (both 3× tech). If not, it compares 20‑day SMH vs FTLS (long/short stocks). If that’s yes, buy TQQQ and TECL; otherwise sit in BIL (T‑bills).
CheckmarkValue prop
Tech-led momentum: out-of-sample ~53% annualized return vs ~18% S&P, with risk-adjusted Sharpe ~0.98 (vs ~0.94). Calmar ~1.68. Higher upside but larger drawdowns (~32% vs ~19%). Best for risk-tolerant investors.

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.
