About

Rules-based swing strategy: hedge with UVXY after blow-off surges, buy dips in leveraged tech (TECL/SOXL/SPXL) after sharp drops, and otherwise rotate among dividends, bonds, gold, and market‑neutral defenses based on simple temperature and volatility checks.
NutHow it works
It watches simple “temperature” gauges of stocks and volatility. If stocks look overheated, it buys UVXY (a fund that usually jumps when fear spikes). If they look washed‑out, it buys the dip in 3x tech/semis/S&P (TECL, SOXL, SPXL). In calmer times it blends dividend funds (SCHD, DGRO) with TECL or defensive picks (BTAL, UGL, TMF/BIL), switching as those gauges shift. Very risky; moves fast.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.86 vs SPY ~1.41, Calmar ~3.58, and ~85% OOS annualized return. Tech-heavy hedged rotations aim for bigger upside with better drawdown control than 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.
