About

A tactical, high‑octane mix of leveraged ETFs. It watches short‑term trend and a “hot/cold” score to flip between offense (TQQQ, SOXL, TECL, etc.) and defense (SQQQ, SOXS, T‑Bills). Very risky and fast‑moving; heavy tech/semis/small‑cap tilts.
NutHow it works
Blends two rule sets, gated by trend (SPY vs its 5‑day average). 1) Rotation: a short‑term “hot/cold” score (RSI) of bonds vs stocks decides offense vs defense—rotate into aggressive bulls (tech, semis, small‑caps, EM, China, biotech) or shift to inverse/short funds or T‑Bills. 2) TQQQ switch: buy TQQQ when the Nasdaq uptrend is healthy and bonds are calm; after big drops buy the bounce (SOXL) or park 60% in T‑Bills + 40% SQQQ; if overheated, hedge with SOXS. RSI = an overbought/oversold gauge.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~53% annualized return vs SPY’s ~21%, Calmar ~1.67. Expect higher volatility and ~32% max drawdown, but disciplined tactical rotation can deliver substantially greater, compounding upside versus the S&P 500.

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.
