About

A rule-driven, high‑octane trader: buys volatility (UVXY) when markets look overheated, buys 3x tech/QQQ when deeply oversold and stabilizing, and hides in T‑Bills/bonds/gold or shorts in stress. Uses many heat checks (RSI, VIX, bond trend).
NutHow it works
RSI = 0–100 heat gauge; high=overbought, low=oversold. UVXY = a 2x bet on market volatility rising. The strategy flips among: 1) Hedge: when stocks look too hot or pop fast, buy UVXY. 2) Buy-the-dip: when tech/QQQ look washed out and bonds OK, buy 3x tech/semis/S&P (TECL, TQQQ, SOXL, SPXL). 3) Safety: in stress, hold T‑Bills (BIL), Treasuries (TMF), gold (UGL), or short funds. Many checks use VIX and bond trends.
CheckmarkValue prop

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.
