About

A daily switcher that rotates between 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ), volatility (VXX), or T‑Bills (BIL) using “overheated” readings and volatility‑shock rules. Goal: ride tech in calm markets and bet on/avoid volatility when markets look stretched or jumpy.
NutHow it works
Daily chooses one: TQQQ (3x Nasdaq tech), VXX (bets on a volatility spike), or BIL (T‑Bills). RSI = a 0–100 “heat gauge”; very high = “too hot.” - If certain sector/broad ETFs (XLP/TQQQ/FAS/SPY; XLY mostly unused) look too hot, switch to VXX. - If TQQQ fell >12% in 6 days: after a >5.5% rebound day, sit in BIL; else buy TQQQ. - If SVXY (short‑vol) drops >7% in a day, move to BIL. - Else stay in TQQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic switcher among TQQQ, VXX, and BIL targets tech rallies with volatility hedges. Out-of-sample: ~30% annualized return vs ~18% for the S&P; higher upside, but significantly larger drawdowns (~58% vs ~19%).

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.
