About

A daily, rules-based tech-and-Treasury strategy: ride big tech uptrends (TQQQ/TECL), rotate into Treasuries/bonds or hedges (SQQQ/UVXY) when signals turn, and use a crisis basket (gold/Treasuries/staples/anti‑beta) in panics.
NutHow it works
It flips between a few ETFs based on three switches: trend, the bond market, and short‑term “hot or cold” readings. - In healthy uptrends (and when bonds aren’t flashing danger), it holds 2 aggressive tech funds (TQQQ, TECL). - If stocks get too hot, it may briefly buy a volatility hedge (UVXY). If they’re washed out, it may hedge with SQQQ or Treasuries (TLT/TMF). - In crises it shifts to a low‑risk mix (gold, Treasuries, staples, anti‑beta).
CheckmarkValue prop
Adaptive tech-and-Treasury strategy delivering outsized, out-of-sample growth: ~54% annualized vs ~23% for S&P 500, with bond signals and crisis hedges to cushion drops. Higher upside in tech rallies—yet expect larger drawdowns in crises; risk-adjusted edge remains.

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.
