About

A daily, very aggressive, semiconductor‑only strategy using 3x ETFs. It buys SOXL after sharp drops, flips to SOXS after big spikes, and uses an RSI ‘heat gauge’ plus VIX/market checks. In stressful markets it may park part of the portfolio in short‑term bonds or T‑Bills.
NutHow it works
What it trades: 3x semiconductor ETFs—SOXL (triple up) or SOXS (triple down). SMH (a chips ETF) is the “thermometer.” SPY/TQQQ/UVXY/SVXY gauge the market’s mood; BSV/BIL are bond/T‑Bill parking spots. RSI: a 0–100 “heat” gauge. High = overheated; low = washed out. Daily: after big drops in SMH it leans long (SOXL); after big spikes it leans short (SOXS). A smaller slice uses RSI tests to fade overbought/oversold and, when fear rises, parks some cash in BSV/BIL. Very aggressive.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~98% annualized return with ~1.23 Sharpe and 1.42 Calmar vs SPY ~21%. Strong semis alpha, but much larger drawdowns. Attractive for aggressive, tactical investors chasing outsized upside vs S&P; not for the risk-averse.

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.
