About

Daily momentum rotation among three leveraged ETFs—defense (DFEN), Nasdaq‑100 tech (TQQQ), and gold (UGL). Uses a 40‑day strength score (RSI), holds the top two equally, and rebalances daily. High risk due to leverage.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks three leveraged ETFs: DFEN (3x defense stocks), TQQQ (3x Nasdaq‑100 tech), and UGL (2x gold). It scores their recent 40‑day price strength—RSI, a 0–100 gauge of how strong recent gains are vs losses—picks the top two, splits money 50/50, and rebalances daily. Note: leverage amplifies moves up and down.
CheckmarkValue prop

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.
