About

Daily rotates among BULZ (3x long mega‑cap tech/innovation), BERZ (−3x), UVXY (volatility), or BIL (T‑Bills) based on tech momentum, extremes, drawdowns, trends, and bond/stock tone. Seeks to ride tech, hide in cash, or hedge in turmoil.
NutHow it works
Chooses one of four: BULZ (3x long big‑tech), BERZ (−3x), UVXY (volatility), or BIL (T‑Bills). Key signals using TQQQ/QQQ/SPY and bonds: - RSI: 0–100 heat meter; >79 = too hot ⇒ BERZ; <32 in slumps ⇒ BULZ. - Sharp 6‑day drop ⇒ defense; huge 1‑day rebound ⇒ UVXY; else BULZ if bonds calm, or BIL. - Normal times: if QQQ in uptrend (above 25‑day average) ⇒ BULZ; big recent drops or jumpy bonds ⇒ BIL; other cases use stock/bond strength to pick BULZ vs BIL. Very high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample shows higher upside: ~25.8% annualized return vs SPY’s ~21.7%, driven by tech momentum (BULZ/BERZ) with hedges (UVXY/BIL). Stronger growth potential, but wider drawdowns; Calmar ~0.49.

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.
