About

Two-sleeve, volatility-aware “buy the dip” rotation among leveraged tech ETFs (TECL/TQQQ) and Treasuries (IEF/SHY). In calm markets it buys the most beaten‑down fund; when markets get jumpy it moves to short‑term Treasuries (SHY).
NutHow it works
Your money is split into two halves. Each half checks how calm the S&P 500 (SPY) has been over ~1 month. If very calm, Half A buys the fund that fell the most lately (low RSI = many recent down days) from: TECL (3x tech), TQQQ (3x Nasdaq‑100), IEF (7‑10y Treasuries); otherwise it holds SHY (1‑3y Treasuries). If at least somewhat calm, Half B buys the most‑fallen from: TECL, TQQQ, SHY; otherwise SHY. The two halves are combined 50/50.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.44, Calmar ~1.46, and ~65% annualized return vs SPY ~22%. A volatility-aware rotation between leveraged tech and Treasuries targets outsized upside with downside protection; note higher drawdowns (~44.6%).

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.
