About

Daily contrarian trades 3× semiconductor ETFs: fade big 10‑day moves (buy SOXS after SOXL surges, or SOXL after SOXS surges). If no extreme, use SOXL’s RSI: oversold → buy TECL; otherwise hold BOXX (cash‑like).
NutHow it works
Each day the strategy checks 3× leveraged chip ETFs: SOXL (bull) and SOXS (bear). If SOXL rose > ~31% in the last 10 days, it bets on a pullback by buying SOXS. Else, if SOXS rose > ~25%, it buys SOXL. If neither move was extreme, it checks SOXL’s 10‑day RSI (a gauge of recent up vs down days; low = oversold). If RSI < 31, it buys TECL (3× tech). Otherwise it parks in BOXX (cash‑like).

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.
