About

A daily, rules-based swing among 3× stocks (UPRO/TQQQ), 3× long Treasuries (TMF), and T‑bills (SGOV). Buys sharp dips or fear-driven weakness; uses a 55/45 leveraged stock‑bond mix in calm uptrends; otherwise parks in cash. No K‑1 funds.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks: how bumpy stocks were, whether stocks have lagged short‑term Treasuries, and if QQQ/SPY fell ~5% in 5 days. • In fear or on dips, it buys 3× S&P (UPRO) and/or 3× Nasdaq (TQQQ), favoring the steadier one. • In healthy uptrends, it holds ~55% 3× stocks and ~45% 3× long Treasuries (TMF). • If conditions look poor, it sits in T‑bills (SGOV).
CheckmarkValue prop
Offers higher upside: ~54% annualized out-of-sample return vs ~22% for the S&P 500, driven by a dynamic 3x stock/3x bond barbell and dip/fear signals. Accept higher drawdowns (up to ~49%) for bigger recoveries; Calmar ~1.10. No K-1s.

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.
