About

A tactical Nasdaq‑100 strategy. It picks bullish (TQQQ) or bearish (PSQ) based on bond vs inverse‑Nasdaq momentum, then scales position (10/90 up to 100%) using short‑term RSI to avoid chasing. Long side can be up to +3x; short side is up to −1x.
NutHow it works
It decides whether to bet for or against the Nasdaq‑100. It compares recent strength in US 7–10yr Treasuries (IEF) to the inverse Nasdaq fund (PSQ) using a momentum gauge called RSI. If bonds look stronger, it goes long via TQQQ; otherwise it goes short via PSQ. Then it picks how aggressive (10/90 to 100%) by choosing the option that looks most oversold over 5 days (lower RSI). After hot runs it dials down; after dips it presses. It changes only when signals flip.
CheckmarkValue prop
Powerful Nasdaq-100 tactical strategy that uses cross-asset momentum to time levered bets (up to 3x long, -1x short). Out-of-sample annualized return ~66% vs S&P ~24%; Calmar ~1.37; but drawdowns can be large (~48%).

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.
