About

Weekly rotation using QQQ vs QQQE to judge if mega‑caps are leading. If yes, it buys the lowest share‑price stock among MSFT/AAPL/NVDA/META; if not, it switches to Eli Lilly (LLY). Single‑stock, high‑concentration approach.
NutHow it works
Each week, it compares recent trend of QQQ (Nasdaq‑100, weighted toward giants) vs QQQE (same 100 stocks but equal‑weighted). If QQQ is stronger (mega‑caps leading), it buys one of MSFT/AAPL/NVDA/META—the one with the lowest share price (note: price per share ≠ “cheapest” company). If not, it buys LLY. Held until next week.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample strength: higher risk-adjusted return than the S&P 500, with Sharpe 1.73 vs 1.29 and Calmar 3.48. Annualized return ~92% vs ~21%, driven by disciplined mega-cap rotation and selective healthcare exposure.

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.
