About

Fast, rules-based swing system in leveraged tech/semis. It fades big one‑day pops, buys deep dips, rides trends when calm, and parks in T‑Bills when risk rises. Uses TQQQ and VIXY as thermometers; trades TECL/SOXL vs SOXS/TECS, with occasional TMF/TMV.
NutHow it works
It watches simple “gauges”: RSI (a heat gauge of recent ups vs downs), moving averages (trend lines), and drawdown/volatility. Signals come from a turbo Nasdaq fund (TQQQ) and the “fear” ETF (VIXY). • If tech looks overheated or pops >~5–6% in a day, it flips bearish on semis/tech (SOXS/TECS). • If tech is washed‑out, it buys 3× tech/semis (TECL/SOXL). • In risky/choppy markets it holds T‑Bills (BIL); sometimes long/short Treasuries (TMF/TMV). K‑1‑free ETFs only.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~53.8% annualized return vs ~19.9% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.16 and risk-off hedges (T-Bills). Targets tech/semis upside via mean-reversion and trend for stronger long-run performance.

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.
