About

High‑octane, rule‑based plan. In uptrends it rides the fastest 3× stock funds; when the market gets overheated it hedges or sits in T‑bills. In weak markets it buys deep dips; otherwise it cuts risk or shorts QQQ. Very high risk.
NutHow it works
1) Trend check: if SPY is above its 200‑day average, it’s a bull market. 2) Bull: if things look “too hot,” briefly hedge (UVXY) or park in T‑bills (SHV). Otherwise put ~67% in the two strongest 3× stock funds (TQQQ, TECL, UPRO, UDOW, BULZ) and ~33% in a short‑vol sleeve (SVXY when trending; else BTAL/DBMF plus a small VIX hedge). 3) Not bull: buy sharp dips (TECL, SOXL, or UPRO). If no dip, de‑risk or go short QQQ (PSQ/SQQQ) using short‑term trend signals.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: annualized return 36.2% vs SPY 20.3%, driven by leverage in strong uptrends and systematic hedges. Potential drawdowns exceed SPY (~50% vs ~19%), so disciplined risk controls are essential.

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.
