About

A rules-based, multi-asset strategy that uses RSI and Bollinger-Band momentum signals to rotate between levered tech/semis bets and hedges, with a defensive bond/cash core. It avoids UVXY, substitutes with SOXS/SQQQ, and aims for K-1 free tax simplicity while targeting tech-led upside with risk controls.
NutHow it works
- Core idea: use momentum signals and Bollinger Bands to tilt between levered equity bets and hedges, with a defensive bond/cash base. - Signals come from RSI (momentum) on multiple references (SPY, SOXS, SOXL, TQQQ, etc.) and a 15/15 Bollinger Band framing. Lookbacks range from 6 to 126 days to capture short-, mid-, and long-term trends. - Tilt logic: when market momentum is favorable, lean toward leveraged bulls (e.g., TQQQ, SOXL) to chase upside; when momentum deteriorates, rotate into hedges (SOXS, SQQQ) or safe / bond-like assets (BIL, TMF, USDU). - Base layer (Base 2) provides a defensive backbone (bonds/cash) to curb drawdowns during turbulence; the system may also shift into long-duration treasury exposure (TMF) or USD strength depending on signals. - Rebalancing follows signal thresholds rather than a fixed calendar, and the plan emphasizes instruments that are generally K-1 free to simplify tax reporting. UVXY is avoided, replaced with alternative hedges like SOXS and SQQQ. - The universe includes tech/semis exposure (TQQQ, SOXL, SOXS, SOQL, TECL), broad market proxies (SPY, QQQ, SPXL, SQQQ), and fixed income/defensive assets (BIL, IEF, TMF, USDU, TLT). - Sector and cross-asset checks are used to confirm regime and to avoid overconcentration in a single theme. - The result is a highly active, regime-driven mix designed to capture upside in tech-led rallies while dampening drawdowns in volatile or down markets. It’s risk-tiered and not suitable for all investors.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, tech-led rotations target big upside: ~54% annualized return vs ~21% for SPY, with Calmar ~1.20 and a defensive core plus hedges. K-1-free tax simplicity. Higher volatility and larger drawdowns than SPY—strong upside, accept bigger risk.

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.
