About

A high-risk, tactical plan that watches a fast Nasdaq fund for sharp weekly drops and big daily jumps, then flips between leveraged shorts, leveraged longs, or a calmer core—while also betting on market “fear” (VIX) rising or falling.
NutHow it works
It uses a “speedometer”: the last week and last day of a very fast Nasdaq-100 fund. If the week was a sharp drop, it enters special mode. On a huge one‑day rebound, it bets against stocks and on fear rising; otherwise it buys aggressive stock funds and bets fear will fade. If there’s no big weekly drop, it holds a calmer mix of broad stock funds plus a small, hedged bet that volatility will fall. High risk due to leverage and VIX-linked funds.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~23.48% vs S&P ~21.44%, using regime-switching, leverage and volatility tilts to capture tech uptrends and risk-off protection. Higher drawdowns (~24.5% vs ~18.8%), but stronger upside potential.

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.
