About

Aggressive TQQQ trend rider: buys 3x Nasdaq in uptrends, flips to hedges (SQQQ/UVXY) or bonds when overheated, breaking down, or fear spikes. Several variants share this logic; one dials down to QLD. Very high risk/volatility.
NutHow it works
This is a set of TQQQ playbooks. Goal: ride Nasdaq uptrends with TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) but step aside or hedge when risk rises. 1) Trend: if SPY is above its 200‑day average, risk‑on; else risk‑off. 2) A short‑term “heat meter” (RSI 0–100): high=overheated → use UVXY (volatility) or SQQQ (3x inverse Nasdaq); low=dip → buy TQQQ/TECL/SOXL. 3) If TQQQ slips below its 20‑day average, rotate to SQQQ or bonds (TLT/BSV/IEF/SHY/SUB). Some versions use milder QLD or briefly buy recent laggards. Very high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~72.65% annualized return, Calmar ~1.67, Sharpe ~1.28 vs SPY ~1.32. Nasdaq-3x upside with rule-based hedges targets strong risk-adjusted growth, but expect higher drawdowns (~43%).

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.
