About

Aggressive, tech‑focused, daily strategy: ride uptrends with 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), fade overheated markets by shorting semis (SOXS), buy semis on dips (SOXL), and when risk spikes, park in T‑Bills plus a 3x short Nasdaq hedge (SQQQ).
NutHow it works
Tickers used: TQQQ(+3x Nasdaq‑100), SQQQ(−3x), SOXL/SOXS(±3x semiconductors), TECL(+3x tech), SPXL(+3x S&P 500), ERX(+2x energy), TMF(+3x long Treasuries), BIL(T‑bills), USDU(U.S. dollar). Each day it asks: • Is tech trending calmly? Then ride it with TQQQ. • Is the market overheated or just popped big? Then short semis (SOXS). • Is the market washed out? Then buy semis (SOXL) for a bounce. • If drawdowns/volatility are high, park 60% in BIL + 40% in SQQQ. Some branches rotate among TECL/SPXL/ERX or hide in TMF/USDU.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets tech leadership with ~51% annualized returns vs ~21% for the S&P, and a Calmar ~1.16. It uses hedges (60% BIL / 40% SQQQ) to defend during stress while pursuing stronger upside.

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.
