About

Daily tactical strategy: ride uptrends in leveraged tech and Treasuries; during selloffs, shift to cash plus inverse tech. Uses simple “hot/cold” (RSI), trend, drawdown, and a black‑swan volatility trigger to manage risk.
NutHow it works
Rebalanced daily, it flips between offense and defense. Offense: buy 3x tech/semis (TQQQ, TECL, SOXL) and/or 3x long Treasuries (TMF) when trends are up (price above a moving average). Defense: move to T‑bills (BIL) plus 3x inverse tech (SQQQ/SOXS) on sharp drops, big drawdowns, or a volatility spike. RSI = hot/cold meter: high→fade with inverse, low→buy dips. A black‑swan switch adds extra hedging when SPY’s 10‑day volatility surges.
CheckmarkValue prop
Tech-heavy, daily strategy with hedges and a black-swan guard. Seeks tech upside in uptrends while trimming losses in stress. OOS ~21%/yr vs SPY ~26%, offering a distinct, regime-aware diversification beyond 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.
