About

A tactical TQQQ strategy: ride Nasdaq uptrends, but when signals say “too hot” or “trend weak,” shift to hedges (inverse/volatility) or bonds. Uses simple trend and a 0–100 “hot/cold” score (RSI) to buy dips and step aside during stress.
NutHow it works
Goal: ride big Nasdaq uptrends (TQQQ=3x Nasdaq‑100) and cut risk fast when conditions look bad. Regime: if S&P 500 is above its 200‑day average → risk‑on; else risk‑off. Signal: RSI(10)=0–100 “hot/cold” score (≈80 too hot, ≈30 washed out). Risk‑on: mostly TQQQ; if too hot or after big spikes, briefly hedge with UVXY (volatility) or SQQQ (inverse Nasdaq). Risk‑off: buy dips in tech (TECL/SOXL/TQQQ) only when washed out; otherwise use hedges (SQQQ/SOXS) or bonds (TLT/BSV/IEF/SHY/SUB). Sometimes uses QLD (2x) or a small “fund surfing” dip‑buy. 3x ETFs swing fast.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~74% annualized return vs ~21.7% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.70 and Sharpe ~1.30. It rides Nasdaq uptrends with simple RSI/trend rules and fast hedges to limit losses—higher upside with disciplined risk control.

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.
