About

Tech‑heavy, daily tactical strategy using leveraged ETFs. It rides Nasdaq uptrends (TQQQ), flips to inverse hedges (SQQQ/SOXS) when overheated or in selloffs, and in very strong markets concentrates in the hottest mega‑cap theme. Uses RSI, trend, and bond risk filters.
NutHow it works
Daily, it checks market tone. If strong, it buys the hottest of AAPL/MSFT/NVDA/TSLA/Exxon (often via 1.5x ETFs). Otherwise it toggles among: 3x Nasdaq long (TQQQ) in uptrends; 3x inverse hedges (SQQQ/SOXS) when tech is overheated or selling hard; 3x semis long (SOXL) on oversold bounces; or a BTAL+SQQQ hedge. Signals use RSI (0–100 heat gauge), recent drops, a 25‑day average, and bond‑market stress.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this tech-heavy strategy targets Nasdaq leadership with built-in hedges, delivering ~82.6% oos annualized return and a Calmar ~1.53 versus SPY’s ~23% return and ~19% drawdown—offering higher upside with favorable risk-adjusted growth.

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.
