About

Daily, tactical rotation across 3x Nasdaq, 3x Treasuries, and 3x Emerging Markets, with cash‑like T‑bills as a safety valve. Uses trend (moving averages) and a 0–100 “heat” gauge (RSI) to flip between offense and defense.
NutHow it works
It splits your money into 3 sleeves, rebalanced daily: 1) Tech sleeve (28%) mostly buys TQQQ (3x Nasdaq) unless the market looks overheated—then it parks in cash‑like T‑bills (BIL) or hedges (SQQQ/TLT/UPRO). 2) Bond sleeve (40%) flips between bull (TMF) and bear (TMV) bets on long‑term Treasuries using trend/“heat” (RSI) and moving averages; it may briefly use TQQQ/IVV/SQQQ. 3) EM sleeve (32%) goes EDC (bull) or EDZ (bear) based on EM trend vs bonds/equities. RSI=0–100 heat gauge; moving average=recent average price.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 37.1% annualized return vs 17.5% for S&P, Sharpe ~1.09, Calmar ~1.16, but max drawdown ~32% vs ~19%. Higher upside with trend/momentum discipline and systematic risk controls.

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.
