About

Aggressive, daily, rules‑driven swing strategy that rides tech/semiconductor/ARK uptrends and flips to hedges (inverse, volatility, or cash‑like T‑Bills) when signals warn of danger. Interest‑rates, volatility, and short‑term momentum guide the switch.
NutHow it works
Daily it reads a few “gauges”: overbought/oversold (RSI = 0–100 hot/cold meter), trend (moving averages), interest‑rates (short vs long Treasuries), and stress (VIX/commodities). If risk is on, it buys fast movers (SOXL, TQQQ, TECL, TARK). If risk is off, it flips to hedges (SOXS/SQQQ, UVXY, TMV) or T‑Bills (BIL/SHV). A crypto sleeve toggles BITO↔BITI; a bonds view toggles TMF↔TMV. Picks 1 fund from small baskets.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: about 94% annualized return vs SPY's ~24%, Calmar ~2.19 and Sharpe ~1.48. A daily, rules-based rotation between leveraged tech exposures and hedges aims for bigger upside while actively managing downside versus the S&P 500.

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.
