About

Daily, rules‑based rotation across Nasdaq/S&P and Treasuries. Uses trend (200‑day), short‑term “hot/cold” triggers (RSI), and 5‑day momentum to choose between leveraged longs (QLD/SSO), inverse tech (QID), or TLT for defense.
NutHow it works
Tickers: SPY=S&P 500; QQQ=Nasdaq‑100; QLD=2× QQQ; QID=−2× QQQ; SSO=2× S&P; TLT=long Treasuries. Daily rules: • If SPY > its 200‑day avg: own the stronger of QQQ or QLD by 5‑day return, unless QQQ is extremely “hot” (10‑day RSI>81) → own QID instead. • If SPY ≤ its 200‑day avg: if QQQ RSI<30 → QLD; else if SPY RSI<30 → SSO; else if QQQ < its 20‑day avg → split 50/50 between winners of {QID vs TLT} and {QID vs QLD}; else SSO. RSI = 10‑day “hot/cold” gauge (>81 hot, <30 cold).
CheckmarkValue prop
Rules-based rotation delivers outsized out-of-sample gains: ~49.6% annualized vs SPY ~23%, Sharpe ~1.42, Calmar ~1.53. Leverages tech/broad market and Treasuries to capture upside; note drawdowns ~32% vs ~19% for SPY.

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.
