About

Rules-driven, tech‑heavy strategy that flips between leveraged tech longs, tech shorts, a defensive stock basket, or a volatility hedge. It reads the S&P 500’s long‑term trend, short‑term “heat” (RSI), and bond/managed‑futures cues to time entries.
NutHow it works
Starts with a market filter: only gets aggressive when the S&P 500 (SPY) is above its 200‑day average (uptrend). Uses RSI (a 0–100 “heat” gauge: >70 hot, <30 cold) and simple trend checks to choose among: leveraged tech longs (TQQQ/TECL/FNGU/SOXL), tech shorts (PSQ/QID/SQQQ), a defensive stock basket (LLY/NVO/COST/GE), or a volatility hedge (UVXY). KMLM is a trend‑following futures fund used as a broad trend proxy.
CheckmarkValue prop
Tech-focused, rules-driven strategy blending leveraged tech exposure with hedges and defense stocks, using a regime filter. Out-of-sample: ~9.75% annualized return with diversified risk to complement the S&P 500 across market regimes.

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.
