About

A 60/40 portfolio where most stock exposure uses 3x leveraged Nasdaq‑100 and S&P 500 funds, while most bond exposure uses regular U.S. Treasuries with a small 3x boost. Heavy tech tilt, high interest‑rate sensitivity, and high overall risk.
NutHow it works
It’s a 60/40 portfolio with an 80/20 twist. Stocks (60%): 24% TQQQ (3x Nasdaq‑100), 24% UPRO (3x S&P 500), 6% QQQ (Nasdaq‑100), 6% SPY (S&P 500). Bonds (40%): 16% TLT (20+yr Treasuries), 16% IEF (7–10yr Treasuries), 4% TMF (3x 20+yr), 4% TYD (3x 7–10yr). “3x” ≈ triple the index’s daily move. Rebalanced monthly.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~24.5% annualized return vs S&P ~20.3%. A tech-heavy, levered stock sleeve with Treasuries seeks higher growth. Expect bigger drawdowns (~31% vs ~19%), but more upside; risk-adjusted return (Sharpe) slightly lower.

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.
