About

An aggressive, timing-heavy system that trades 3x semiconductor/Nasdaq ETFs, rotates into energy/commodities when calm, and shifts to VIX hedges in panics. Bond signals flip risk on/off. High potential, very volatile, frequent shifts.
NutHow it works
Core: trades semiconductors and Nasdaq with 3x ETFs (SOXL/SOXS, TQQQ/SQQQ). RSI = a short‑term “heat” gauge (high=hot/overbought, low=cold/oversold). It also checks trend (moving‑average return) and big 1‑day moves. • Calm: own the single strongest theme (chips, energy, commodities, or SPY). • Fear spike: switch to volatility hedges (UVXY/VIXY/VIXM). • Extremes: “buy dips, sell rips.” • Bonds (BIL vs BND/LQD, IEI/TLH) flip risk on/off.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~38.7% annualized return vs SPY ~21%, driven by 3x semiconductor/Nasdaq exposure, rotations, and VIX hedges. Calmar ~1.12 signals solid risk-adjusted gains, but drawdowns ~34.5% vs ~18.8% and higher volatility.

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.
