About

Binary switch: when the Nasdaq‑100 is trending up (above 200‑day average and up over ~60 days), go all‑in TQQQ (3x QQQ). Otherwise sit in SGOV (T‑bills) for safety. Rebalanced weekly.
NutHow it works
Each week, the strategy checks QQQ (an ETF of the Nasdaq‑100: Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia, etc.). Two tests: price above its 200‑day average, and its past 60‑day return is positive. If both pass, hold TQQQ (a fund targeting ~3x QQQ’s daily move). If not, hold SGOV (very short‑term U.S. Treasury bills).
CheckmarkValue prop
High-upside, rules-based Nasdaq strategy: go 3x TQQQ on uptrends, otherwise park in SGOV. Out-of-sample: ~69% annualized return with ~23% max drawdown—significantly higher upside than the S&P (~22%) with disciplined risk control.

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.
