About

Daily switches among turbo‑Nasdaq (TQQQ), an anti‑Nasdaq hedge (PSQ), or a defensive market‑neutral fund (BTAL). Buys TQQQ in uptrends or deep selloffs, uses BTAL in choppy/weak markets, and PSQ when Nasdaq looks overheated or whipsaw‑prone.
NutHow it works
Each day it picks 1 fund: TQQQ (triple‑speed Nasdaq), PSQ (moves opposite Nasdaq), or BTAL (defensive: favors steadier stocks vs volatile ones). If Nasdaq is overheated or whipsawing, it hedges with PSQ. After big drops, if very oversold or bonds are calm, it buys TQQQ. Otherwise: in uptrends it buys TQQQ; in choppy/weak markets it often uses BTAL, using simple stock/bond strength gauges to choose.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic, regime-based strategy: switch among TQQQ, PSQ, and BTAL to capture Nasdaq upsides and hedge risk. OOS: ~20.3% annualized return, 32.7% max drawdown, Calmar ~0.62. Nasdaq diversification with active risk controls vs 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.
