About

A regime-driven, tactical basket that switches between leveraged ETFs, volatility hedges, and defense assets using RSI, moving averages, and momentum signals to exploit market regimes.
NutHow it works
This is a rule-based, regime-driven system. It watches a wide set of assets (mostly leveraged ETFs like UVXY, SOXL, TQQQ and hedges like SPXU, SQQQ, VIXY, SPXU) and decides what to own or hedge based on simple, repeatable checks. Key ideas: use RSI to gauge if a market is overbought or oversold, use moving-average comparisons to judge trend strength, and use momentum/return screens to pick the best asset in a group. The tree starts with big market themes (e.g., Overbought SPY, Bear Market, Defense) and then drills down to specific asset choices, often selecting the single best candidate (the β€œ1” in select-n) or a small top/bottom subset. Leaves specify the exact asset to trade. The plan emphasizes hedges during volatility spikes (UVXY/VIXY) and defense during downturns (SHY, GLD, UCO, TMV/TMF), with occasional long-bavor exposure to tech and semiconductors (TECL, TQQQ, SOXL) in favorable regimes. Rebalance occurs only when a new rule path is triggered, not on a fixed schedule. RSI and other indicators use various windows to capture short-, medium-, and long-term signals, which keeps the system responsive to changing regimes. In short: a complex, multi-regime, signal-driven basket that toggles among leveraged longs, volatility hedges, and defensive plays based on momentum and price relationships.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return: 32.2% vs SPY 25%; regime-driven shifts among leveraged longs, hedges, and defense assets aim for higher upside with volatility protection. Strong upside potential, but higher drawdown risk.

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.
