About

Aggressive, daily‑rebalanced trader that rides uptrends with 3x Nasdaq/S&P/semis, buys short-term dips, and quickly flips to hedges (inverse ETFs, bonds/cash, USD, volatility, or commodities) when heat, trend, or bond signals turn cautionary.
NutHow it works
It is a daily trading bot. - It checks: trend (S&P 500 vs its 200‑day avg), heat (RSI = a 0–100 "hot/cold" meter), big 1–2 day shocks, and a bond/stock risk check. - If risk-on: it buys two recent "dip" picks from TQQQ=3x Nasdaq, SPXL/UPRO=3x S&P, SOXL=3x semis, TMF=3x long Treasuries. - If markets look stretched or weak: it flips to hedges SQQQ/SOXS/SPXS=3x inverse, UVXY=volatility, BIL/BSV/AGG=bonds/cash, UUP=US$, or DBC=commodities. Focus: big tech, S&P 500, semis.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return about 40% vs SPY ~23%, capturing big uptrends in tech/S&P/semis with rapid hedges during stress. Higher upside but much larger drawdowns (~65% vs ~19%), for aggressive, risk-tolerant investors seeking outsized 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.
