About

A tactical switch between tech (XLK) and a diversifier (KMLM) using a short-term strength score (RSI). If both slump, it makes an aggressive rebound bet in 3× semiconductors (SOXL). Single-position, high concentration; SOXL adds significant risk.
NutHow it works
It watches two funds: XLK (big U.S. tech stocks) and KMLM (a “managed futures” diversifier). Each day it looks at the last ~10 trading days. If both have dropped sharply, it buys SOXL (a 3× leveraged semiconductor fund). Otherwise, it owns whichever of XLK or KMLM has been stronger recently, judged by RSI (a score of how strong/weak recent price moves have been). It holds 1 fund at a time; it only changes when the signal flips.
CheckmarkValue prop
Disciplined, RSI-driven tactical strategy rotating between XLK and KMLM, with a SOXL rebound when both lag. A single-position, tech-focused mix plus managed-futures diversification designed to offer momentum-led exposure and diversification beyond the S&P, with higher drawdown risk.

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.
