About

Daily momentum mix of top cryptos and high-octane equities (TQQQ, TSLA, NVDA) plus diversified KMLM. Adds UVIX as a volatility spike hedge when tech is extra wild. Weights steadier picks more. Built for short-term trading in fast markets.
NutHow it works
Each day, it picks: - Top 3 cryptos (best 2-week gains) from BTC, ETH, DOGE, SOL, SHIB. - Top 2 from TQQQ (3x Nasdaq-100), TSLA, NVDA, KMLM (a trend-following managed‑futures ETF). If TQQQ has been wilder than VOO (S&P 500), it adds UVIX (a VIX spike hedge); otherwise it adds TQQQ. Then it gives bigger weights to steadier choices (lower 2‑week volatility).
CheckmarkValue prop
Volatility-aware, diversified momentum across crypto, tech, and trend futures with a UVIX hedge. It adds non-correlated exposure and volatility protection to diversify a SPY core—even if OOS returns lag SPY.

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.
