About

Uses trend and a short‑term heat meter to rotate 100% among 3x tech long/short (TQQQ/SQQQ/TECL), 3x S&P 500 (UPRO), long bonds (TLT), or volatility (UVXY). KMLM is a cross‑asset trend yardstick. Tech‑heavy, very high risk.
NutHow it works
RSI is a 0–100 heat meter of recent moves (high=overbought, low=oversold). KMLM is a managed‑futures trend ETF used only as a yardstick. If the S&P 500 is above its 200‑day average, go 3x long or 3x short tech (TQQQ/SQQQ) based on whether tech beats KMLM; if overheated, briefly hold UVXY. If below the 200‑day, buy sharp dips (TECL/UPRO) or choose SQQQ vs TLT by short‑term trend.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivered ~62.8% annualized return with a ~1.08 Sharpe and ~2.08 Calmar, outperforming the S&P 500 on risk-adjusted terms. It tactically rotates tech leadership and hedges volatility for stronger upside with limited downside.

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.
