About

Scales into leveraged Nasdaq‑100 (TQQQ) as more moving‑average trends turn up; otherwise parks in T‑Bills (BIL). Four equal signals, rebalanced daily. Seeks risk‑on in uptrends and risk‑off in downtrends.
NutHow it works
Each day your money is split into 4 equal slices. Each slice either buys TQQQ (a fund aiming for 3× the daily move of the Nasdaq‑100—big US tech) or holds BIL (short‑term T‑Bills) based on simple trend checks: price vs 20‑day and 200‑day averages, and whether the 20‑day > 50‑day and 50‑day > 200‑day. More checks true = more TQQQ; none = all BIL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Potentially higher upside than the S&P: out-of-sample annualized return 34.2% vs 22.8%, via trend-driven Nasdaq-100 exposure with cash hedges. Strong upside capture with built‑in risk controls; note larger drawdowns in choppy markets.

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.
