About

Daily, it checks trend first. In uptrends it rides tech unless prices look too “hot,” then it hedges with inverse tech or volatility. In downtrends it buys big dips; otherwise it parks in bonds, the dollar, or gold—or shorts tech. RSI guides each choice.
NutHow it works
1) Check if the S&P 500 (SPY) is above its 200‑day average (uptrend) or below (downtrend). 2) Uptrend: if Nasdaq looks overheated by RSI (0–100 gauge of how “hot/cold” price is), briefly hedge with inverse tech or volatility; else hold TQQQ (3x tech) or short‑term TIPS (STIP), picked by RSI. 3) Downtrend: buy deep dips in tech/S&P or sit in T‑bills (SHY). If no deep dip, rotate among tech (TQQQ), Treasuries (TLT), the U.S. dollar (UUP) or gold (UGL) vs short tech (SQQQ), using RSI.

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.
