About

Tactical Nasdaq bet using TQQQ (3× long) and PSQ (−1× short). A bond‑vs‑short signal picks bullish or bearish. Then it buys the most “sold‑off” mix on that side, seeking a bounce. Expect very high risk and rapid swings.
NutHow it works
- It checks a quick “strength meter” (RSI) for IEF (7–10y US Treasuries) and PSQ (−1× short Nasdaq‑100). If IEF’s score is higher, it goes risk‑on; otherwise risk‑off. - Risk‑on: picks a TQQQ‑tilted mix (70–100% TQQQ). Risk‑off: picks a PSQ‑tilted mix (70–100% PSQ). - From those mixes, it chooses the one with the lowest 5‑day strength score (most recently sold off), aiming for a bounce. - Holds until the signals change.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample Nasdaq-focused strategy aiming for outsized gains: ~76% annualized return vs ~25% for the S&P, with strong risk-adjusted metrics (Sharpe ~1.47, Calmar ~1.58). Higher upside, but larger drawdowns (~48% vs ~19%).

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.
