About

A daily “buy the dip” system. It ranks a set of leveraged bull/bear ETFs by how much they fell over 2 days (RSI), buys the 4 most beaten-down, equal-weight, and rebalances every day. Heavy use of leveraged funds makes it very risky.
NutHow it works
Universe: ETFs tied to big indexes, often 3x leveraged—Nasdaq-100 up (TQQQ, QLD) and down (SQQQ, QID); Semis up (SOXL) and down (SOXS); S&P 500 up (UPRO) and down (SPXS); long US Treasuries up (TMF, TLT) and down (TMV); cash-like (BIL, BSV). Each day it scores 2-day “recent drop” (RSI). It buys the 4 lowest scores (most beaten-down), splits money equally, and repeats daily. Very risky.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~21.6% annualized return vs SPY ~20.5%, with alpha across 13 ETFs. Calmar ~0.60 indicates solid risk-adjusted upside; higher drawdown (~35.7%) reflects levered mean-reversion but can yield larger gains in favorable regimes.

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.
