About

Rules-based, daily strategy around the Nasdaq. In uptrends it rides 3x tech funds (TQQQ/TECL/UPRO) and buys dips; in downtrends it hedges with SQQQ, UVXY, or short-term bonds (BSV). Uses RSI and moving averages to time switches.
NutHow it works
Daily rules. 1) Backdrop: If SPY is above its 200‑day average, treat as an uptrend. 2) Heat gauge (RSI 0–100): >80 = very hot; <31 = very cold. Uptrend: mainly own TQQQ (3x Nasdaq‑100), TECL (3x Tech), UPRO (3x S&P), buying dips; when too hot, briefly move to SQQQ (−3x Nasdaq) or UVXY (volatility). Downtrend: rotate among SQQQ, UVXY, or BSV (short‑term bonds), with occasional bounce buys in TECL/SPXL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this Nasdaq-tilt strategy targets tech leadership with tactical hedges, delivering ~63% annualized return vs S&P ~23%, Calmar ~1.32 and Sharpe ~1.13. Higher upside and hedging, though it carries larger drawdowns in downturns.

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.
