About

A fast, tactical strategy: when stocks look overheated, it bets on a volatility pop (UVXY). When Nasdaq looks washed out, it rides a bounce (TQQQ). Otherwise it rotates among short Nasdaq, SPY, bonds, or T‑bills using recent performance and risk gauges.
NutHow it works
Daily, it checks many stock indexes/sectors with a short‑term “too hot/too cold” meter (RSI). If any look extremely hot, it buys UVXY (a fund that jumps when market fear rises). If the Nasdaq‑100 looks very cold, it buys TQQQ (3x bullish Nasdaq). Otherwise it rotates among: SQQQ (3x bearish Nasdaq), SPY (S&P 500), short‑term bonds (BSV), or T‑bills (BIL), using recent performance and a few “risk regime” gauges (including a volatility meter and a bond‑vs‑tech trend check). It rebalances daily and can move fast.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~7.74% annualized returns, max drawdown ~34.1%, Sharpe ~0.39. A tactical sleeve to SPY that uses volatility and momentum signals (UVXY, TQQQ, rotations) for diversification and potential upside in choppy markets.

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.
