About

Fast, tactical, tech‑tilted ETF strategy. After sharp drops it either buys the dip or briefly hedges. Otherwise it follows bond‑vs‑stock “weathervanes” (via RSI) to rotate between leveraged bull funds and a calmer sector mix with an optional hedge.
NutHow it works
Two modes: 1) Big drop: If 3x Nasdaq (TQQQ) fell >11% in 6 days, then a >5.5% daily bounce = short-term hedge (best of SQQQ, UVXY, TMV). Otherwise, buy 3 weakest 3x bulls (TQQQ, SOXL, TECL, UPRO, UDOW). 2) Else: Many bond‑vs‑stock checks using RSI (0–100; more up‑days = higher). That steers it to either buy dips in select 3x bulls or hold calmer sector ETFs (XLK/XLV/XLU/XLP) plus a small S&P short (SH).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~66% annualized return vs ~21% for the S&P, Calmar ~1.51. Tech tilt, dip-buying, and hedges target strong upside with solid risk-adjusted results—yet drawdowns may be larger in stress.

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.
