About

Daily RSI-based switch: chase rebounds with TQQQ, rotate to a leveraged defensive mix when the market’s overheated, use QYLD in choppy ranges, otherwise hold broad U.S. stocks via VOO.
NutHow it works
RSI is a 0–100 “heat gauge” of 14‑day price moves: >70=hot, <30=cold. Tickers: VOO=S&P 500; TQQQ=3x Nasdaq‑100; QYLD=covered‑call on Nasdaq‑100; AGG=US bonds; TMF=3x long Treasuries; CURE=3x Healthcare; UPW=2x Utilities; UYG=2x Financials. Rules (checked daily): - If RSI(VOO)>70: split into AGG/TMF/CURE/UPW/UYG. - Else if RSI(TQQQ)<30: buy TQQQ. - Else if 40<RSI(VOO)<60: hold QYLD. - Else: hold VOO.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: 34.5% annual return vs 21.8% for the S&P; lower max drawdown (16.7% vs 18.8%); Calmar ~2.07 — strong risk-adjusted upside. RSI-based rotations aim for bigger gains with downside 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.
