About

Switches among SPY, SPXL, and UVXY using a 7‑day RSI on SPY: buy leveraged SPXL when oversold, buy UVXY when overbought, otherwise hold SPY. Seeks rebounds and volatility spikes with high-risk funds.
NutHow it works
It uses SPY as the market gauge. It checks SPY’s 7‑day RSI, a 0–100 read of recent buying vs selling (low = very weak, high = very strong). If RSI < 25, buy SPXL (3x S&P 500) to play a rebound. If RSI > 85, buy UVXY, which tends to jump when stocks fall and fear rises. Otherwise hold SPY. SPY/SPXL = broad U.S. large-cap stocks; UVXY = market volatility. Trades only when signals change.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~29% annualized return vs SPY ~17.6%, with Calmar ~1.04. RSI(7) signals steer 3x SPXL or UVXY for rebounds and volatility spikes, delivering stronger upside with disciplined risk management.

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.
