About

A contrarian, high‑octane switcher: if markets look overheated or QQQ just surged, it bets on a pullback via UVXY or inverse Nasdaq. Otherwise it rides Nasdaq with TQQQ; if too hot, flips to SQQQ. Uses RSI and short‑term jump checks.
NutHow it works
It puts 100% into one fund at a time. It watches: SPY (S&P 500), QQQ (Nasdaq‑100), VTV (value), VOX (communication), XLP (staples), XLF (financials). RSI is a 0–100 “heat” score; >~80 = very hot. If any are very hot, it buys UVXY (a VIX fund that jumps when stocks drop). Else, if QQQ popped ~2–10% in 1–10 days, it shorts Nasdaq with QID (−2x). Else, if QQQ’s RSI(14) < 75 it buys TQQQ (+3x); otherwise SQQQ (−3x). Very risky.
CheckmarkValue prop
Disciplined contrarian sleeve: levered Nasdaq timing with volatility hedges. Out-of-sample: ~12.6% annualized return with Sharpe ~0.51 (vs SPY ~0.96) and ~55% max drawdown, offering diversification and exposure to regime shifts beyond the S&P 500.

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.
