About

Daily rules that mostly ride the Nasdaq uptrend with TQQQ, but quickly hedge/short when moves look overheated, buy brief oversold bounces, and reduce leverage in crashes/sideways markets. Heavy tech/semis tilt; very high risk and turnover.
NutHow it works
Daily, it checks the long‑term trend (S&P 500 vs 200‑day avg). If up: ride TQQQ (3× Nasdaq). If short‑term gets too hot, shift to UVXY (volatility) or SQQQ (3× inverse Nasdaq); if washed‑out, buy the dip. If trend is down: try brief oversold bounces (TECL/SOXL/UDOW/UPRO). In deeper/sideways drops it cuts leverage and flips between QQQ and PSQ using a bond (TLT) vs inverse‑tech signal, or rotates among SPY/QQQ/DIA/XLP. RSI = short‑term “heat” (0–100).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: captures Nasdaq rallies with hedges. ~95% annualized return vs SPY ~23%; Sharpe ~1.43, Calmar ~1.65. Higher drawdowns accompany bigger upside; regime switching aims to protect capital while exploiting tech leadership.

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.
