About

A fast, rules-based rotation. In uptrends it buys the 2 strongest index ETFs (often leveraged). In weak markets it either bets on rebounds with TQQQ, stays in the calmest equity ETF, or shifts to one defensive fund. High return potential, big swings.
NutHow it works
1) Check trend: If the S&P 500 (SPY) 50-day average is above its 200-day, buy the 2 strongest from QQQ/QLD/TQQQ/SPXL/UPRO by 10‑day RSI (0–100 momentum score; higher = stronger). 2) Else, if QQQ’s RSI < 30 (oversold), buy TQQQ. 3) Else, if SPY is above its 30‑day average, buy the calmest of those equity ETFs (lowest 20‑day volatility). 4) Else, buy 1 defensive ETF (bonds/defensive sectors) with the lowest 10‑day RSI. Rebalance daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Rule-based rotation aims for higher upside in uptrends with leverage and defense in downtrends. Out-of-sample history shows stronger upside capture than the S&P 500, but with higher volatility and drawdowns—potential for long-run 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.
