About

Mostly holds QQQ. After a 5-day drop >5%, it makes a short-term leveraged bet: fade a big 1-day bounce with -2x (QID) or, if no big bounce, go +2x (QLD). Rebalanced daily; concentrated in big U.S. tech/growth; high risk.
NutHow it works
QQQ tracks the Nasdaq-100 (big U.S. tech/growth). QLD targets +2x QQQ’s daily move; QID targets -2x. Daily check: If QQQ fell more than 5% over the last 5 trading days, switch to a short-term leveraged bet: - If today QQQ rose over 1%, buy QID (fade the bounce). - Otherwise buy QLD (play a rebound). If the last 5 days weren’t that bad, just hold QQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
This strategy offers higher upside vs the S&P: OOS annualized return ~32.8% vs ~23.6%, Sharpe ~1.27, Calmar ~1.17, driven by regime-based bets after dips and selective +2x/-2x leverage. Drawdowns can be larger.

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.
