About

A multi-block, rules-based, leveraged ETF strategy that times momentum in tech/semiconductors using bull and bear 3x ETFs, hedges with bonds/cash, and regime checks to manage risk. No fixed rebalancing; dynamic, high-risk exposure with tax-friendly framing.
NutHow it works
What it does in plain language: - It looks for moments when certain tech/semiconductor assets are showing strength or weakness over short periods. - When signals agree, it takes a leveraged bet (often 3x) on the direction using bull ETFs like SOXL or TECL; when signals indicate weakness, it may switch into bear/short ETFs like SOXS or TECS or hedge with bonds/cash proxies. - It uses several regime checks (very oversold, normal, danger) to decide how aggressively to invest and whether to hedge. Bond proxies (BIL, IEF, TMF) help gauge risk appetite and liquidity in the market, and VIXY helps gauge volatility risk. - There is no fixed calendar rebalancing; entries/exits are dictated by the nested rules and signal convergence. Weighting inside blocks indicates how strongly a signal should influence position sizing. - The goal is to capture timely moves in tech/semis while keeping a lid on risk during adverse periods, all in a tax-friendly packaging (K-1 Free).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~85% annualized return vs SPY ~21%; Calmar ~1.69. Leverage-based tech/semis timing with hedges aims to beat the S&P, with strong upside but drawdowns near ~50% in volatile regimes.

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.
