About

A fast, rules-based strategy that flips between leveraged tech/semis, volatility spikes (UVXY), inverse hedges, and safe assets (Treasuries, cash, dividends) using simple “hot/cold” (RSI), trend, and volatility checks.
NutHow it works
It’s a switchboard that watches a few gauges: RSI (a “hot/cold” meter—high = overbought, low = oversold), trend, and volatility (VIX). • If markets look overheated, it buys UVXY (benefits if fear jumps) or inverse hedges. • If they look washed out or trending up calmly, it buys fast movers like TECL (tech) and SOXL (semis). • If stress rises or bonds lead, it shifts to Treasuries (TMF), cash (BIL), gold, USD, or dividends (SCHD/DGRO).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~76% annualized return vs ~22% for the S&P, Sharpe ~1.67 vs ~1.41, Calmar ~2.76, with beta ~1.0. Positive alpha plus volatility hedges offer superior risk-adjusted upside, though drawdowns can be higher.

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.
