About

Switches to 3× Nasdaq‑100 (TQQQ) only when QQQ is in a strong uptrend; otherwise parks in cash‑like Treasuries (SGOV). Signals: QQQ above its 200‑day average and a positive 60‑day return. Rebalanced weekly.
NutHow it works
Each week it checks QQQ (an ETF of the Nasdaq‑100: big tech). If QQQ’s price is above its 200‑day average (long‑term uptrend) AND its last 60‑day return is positive (recent gains), it holds 100% TQQQ (a 3× QQQ fund). Otherwise it holds 100% SGOV (very short‑term U.S. Treasuries).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~33.5% annualized return vs ~18.9% for the S&P, Calmar ~1.46. Invest in strong uptrends (3x Nasdaq-100) or SGOV cash for higher long-run growth, with disciplined risk—bear markets can bring larger drawdowns.

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.
