About

A daily, tech‑focused switcher. It fades overheated Nasdaq, buys big dips in tech, and otherwise flips long/short Apple or Tesla based on bonds vs inverse‑tech strength. Uses multiple timeframes. Very aggressive; leveraged/inverse ETFs involved.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks a few tells. If the Nasdaq looks extremely hot after a big run‑up, it steps aside (T‑Bills) or briefly bets against semiconductors. If it looks washed‑out, it buys a leveraged tech ETF. Otherwise, it goes long or short Apple or Tesla by comparing a simple ‘hot/cold’ gauge (RSI) on bonds vs an inverse‑Nasdaq fund. It cross‑checks several look‑back windows to pick the most timely setup.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~25.95% vs S&P ~22.95%; tech-focused, adaptive alpha with hedges and tactical bets. Higher volatility and drawdowns (~34%), but Calmar ~0.76 signals favorable risk-adjusted upside vs the S&P.

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.
