About

A daily switch among TQQQ, QQQY, and PSQ (sometimes SQQQ). It uses simple “trend and heat” tests plus volatility and macro checks to ride tech uptrends, collect income in chop, and go inverse when risk spikes. Focus: Nasdaq‑100 (big tech).
NutHow it works
Each day it picks ONE ETF tied to big tech (Nasdaq‑100): TQQQ (3x long), QQQY (income-focused Nasdaq‑100), PSQ (1x short), or sometimes SQQQ (3x short). It checks: - Trend via moving averages (long‑term “trend lines”). - Heat via RSI (0–100 “too hot/too cold” gauge). - Volatility spikes (UVXY), bonds (TLT, BIL vs IEF), and commodities (DBC). Strong uptrend → TQQQ; choppy/cautious → QQQY; risk/overheat → PSQ/SQQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this Nasdaq-100 rotation seeks higher upside (≈28.9% annualized) vs SPY’s ≈23.4%, with solid risk-adjusted control (Calmar ≈1.30) and positive alpha. It captures tech uptrends while using risk signals and hedges to protect pullbacks.

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.
