About

A daily rules-based switch around TQQQ: ride tech uptrends, step aside to T‑bills when overheated, and in downtrends either buy sharp dips or rotate to short‑Nasdaq or long Treasuries based on short-term strength.
NutHow it works
Rebalanced daily. 1) Trend: if TQQQ’s 50-day average price is above its 200-day, it’s an uptrend; otherwise a downtrend. Moving averages are simple price averages. RSI is a speedometer of recent moves: above ~80 = overheated, below ~30 = washed out. Uptrend: hold TQQQ (3x Nasdaq-100 tech) unless things look overheated (TQQQ RSI>79 or SPY RSI>80); then park in BIL (T‑bills). Downtrend: if TQQQ RSI<31, buy TQQQ; else if SPY RSI<30, buy UPRO (3x S&P 500). If neither: if TQQQ is below its 20-day average, pick the stronger (by RSI) of SQQQ (−3x Nasdaq) or TLT (long Treasuries); otherwise buy SQQQ if it’s oversold, else TQQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~65.7% annualized return vs ~21.4% for SPY, Sharpe ~1.09, Calmar ~1.13. Note the larger drawdown (~58%), for risk-tolerant investors seeking tactical tech exposure and upside.

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.
