About

Daily, rules-based rotation that swings between 3x tech/semis, their 3x inverse hedges, Treasuries, USD/commodities, and cash using RSI, trend, and volatility checks. Aims to buy big dips, fade spikes, and defend in turmoil. Extremely high risk.
NutHow it works
- Every day it checks simple signals: • RSI (a speedometer of recent moves): high = overheated, low = washed out. • Trend (price vs moving average): uptrend vs downtrend. • Fear gauges (VIX funds), bonds, and commodities to spot risk-on/off. - When tech/semis look strong or very washed out, it buys 3x bulls (TQQQ/SOXL). If they look overheated or fear spikes, it flips to 3x bears (SQQQ/SOXS) or cash (BIL/ICSH). - Separate sleeves add diversification by rotating among stocks, long bonds, commodities, and the US dollar based on recent performance. - Very active and high risk because it uses 3x ETFs.
CheckmarkValue prop
Ultra Balancer rotates 3x tech/semis and hedges with bonds/USD/commodities sleeves daily. OOS: ~29% annualized vs SPY ~21%, Calmar ~1.25 vs ~1.12. Higher upside with adaptive hedges-though drawdowns can be larger in tough markets.

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.
