About

A fast, single‑ETF rotation using 7‑day RSI. If SPY beats cash, own SPY. Otherwise, bond moves pick QQQ or SOXX; if neither, sit in Treasuries (IEF or TLT) with a small contrarian tilt between them.
NutHow it works
It uses a 7‑day RSI (a 0–100 “heat” score of recent gains vs losses) to make one choice at a time: 1) If big US stocks (SPY) are hotter than cash‑like T‑bills (BIL), buy SPY. Else read Treasuries: if 3–7y (IEI) beat 1–3y (SHY), buy tech (QQQ). Else if 3–7y beat 7–10y (IEF), buy chipmakers (SOXX). Else hide in Treasuries: if 20y+ (TLT) is hotter, pick 7–10y (IEF); otherwise pick TLT.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~28% annualized return vs SPY’s ~22%, via regime-driven rotations into tech/semis and bonds. Expect higher upside but larger drawdowns (~38% vs ~19%). Growth potential with disciplined rotation.

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.
