About

A daily switch that rotates among 3x long tech (BULZ), 3x short tech (BERZ), cash-like T‑Bills (BIL), or volatility (UVXY) using recent Nasdaq momentum, big selloff flags, and bond‑market stress to decide when to take risk, hedge, or step aside.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks recent Nasdaq moves and bond‑market stress to choose one: BULZ (3x long big‑tech basket), BERZ (3x inverse), BIL (T‑Bills), or UVXY (volatility). If tech looks overheated → BERZ. After sharp selloffs it may play a bounce (BULZ) or elevated volatility (UVXY). In uptrends it rides tech (BULZ); if stocks/bonds look shaky it parks in BIL. QQQ/TQQQ, SPY, BND/IEF/TLT/TMF are used only as signals.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample upside: ~25.8% annualized vs ~21.7% for the S&P, driven by tactical tech timing and risk controls. Expect higher drawdowns (~52%), but potential for stronger tech-driven growth.

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.
