About

A signal-driven, multi-asset rotation that uses RSI and momentum screens to tilt between leveraged tech/semis bets (TECL/TECS, SOXL/SOXS, HIBL/HIBS) and volatility/bond hedges (UVXY, SHY, TMF, etc.), aiming to “buy the dips” and “sell the rips” while balancing risk with bonds and volatility bets.
NutHow it works
- What it tries to do: continuously tilt among a set of leveraged bets on tech/semis and related high-beta sectors, while using volatility and bonds to cushion risk, and using short-term momentum signals to pick which side to favor. It’s not a buy-and-hold plan; it’s a rotating, signal-based framework that tries to ride swings in tech/semis, while keeping a hedge against sudden spikes in volatility. - How signals work in plain terms: RSI is a momentum gauge. When RSI shows the market or a subgroup is “oversold” (prices have fallen a lot lately and may bounce) the system checks a pool of leveraged bets and a volatility hedge, and may place a long bet on the strongest-looking option from that pool. Conversely, when RSI shows “overbought” (prices have risen too fast and may pull back), it looks for bearish or hedging plays among the same set and may place a short or hedged position. The lookback windows are short (roughly 5–13 days for RSI assessments) to keep the signal timely. It also uses simple momentum screens (cumulative return and moving-average-like checks over 1–60 days) to decide if a position should be boosted or reduced. - The main instrument groups you’ll see: UVXY (volatility hedge/bet on fear) and several 3x leveraged ETFs that are either bullish or bearish on technology and semiconductors (TECL/TECS, SOXL/SOXS) or high-beta equities (HIBL/HIBS). There are also more traditional bond/treasury positions (SHY, BIL, TMF, TY0, EDV, VTIP, STIP, etc.) used to modulate risk and provide ballast. - How positions are chosen: the strategy screens a few themed pools (e.g., “Plaid SOXL / SOXS Baller” and “Bullish/Bearish Baller” blocks). Within each block, it ranks candidate assets by a momentum metric (RSI over a window like 11–13 days) and selects one or a small subset to carry, often with weight splits like 100/100 or 68/32, depending on the sub-theme. The labels like “Oversold NASDAQ,” “Overbought NASDAQ,” or “Buy the dips / Hold stocks” indicate macro context cues used to decide whether to tilt toward long tech/semis bets, short hedges, or a blended stock/bond allocation. - Risk and scope: this is a high-risk, high-variance approach due to the use of 3x leveraged ETFs and volatility plays. It also requires careful monitoring of correlation between assets, as leverage magnifies moves and cross-asset dynamics (e.g., volatility spikes often hit both UVXY and high-beta/tail-risk ETFs). The strategy appears designed for short-to-intermediate horizon trading rather than long-only investing, with frequent signals based on short lookbacks.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this signal-driven rotation targets tech/semis with leverage and hedges, delivering ~18.5% annualized return, beta ~0.25, and solid diversification vs the S&P 500—though it carries larger drawdowns in stress moments.

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.
