About

Aggressive, daily strategy. In uptrends it buys the dip in 3x tech/S&P/semis (TQQQ, SPXL/UPRO, SOXL, TMF). If markets get too “hot,” it hedges briefly with UVXY. In downtrends or stress, it flips to inverse ETFs, cash‑like T‑bills, bonds, dollar, or gold.
NutHow it works
Daily, it checks: (1) Trend: Is the S&P 500 (SPY) above long‑term averages? (2) “Heat meter” RSI (0–100): >70 = very hot, <30 = washed‑out. (3) Bond mood using BIL (T‑bills) vs IEF (7–10y Treasuries). If uptrend: buy dips in TQQQ/SPXL/UPRO/SOXL/TMF; if too hot, briefly hedge with UVXY. If downtrend/commodities strong: rotate to SQQQ/SOXS/SPXS, BIL/AGG, UUP, or gold (UGL).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~23.48% annualized return vs SPY’s ~22.91%, with dynamic hedging and dip-buying in leaders. Higher upside and adaptive risk control, but expect larger drawdowns and weaker risk-adjusted performance than 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.
