About

A daily, tech‑focused switcher. It uses a short‑term “heat” gauge (RSI) and a 6‑month check versus defensive sectors. It flips between 2x long QQQ (QLD), 2x short QQQ (QID), or cash‑like T‑Bills (BIL).
NutHow it works
It watches Tech (XLK) with a “heat” score (RSI, 0–100). Very hot (>80) → bet against tech via QID (2x short QQQ). Very cold (<30) → bet on tech via QLD (2x long QQQ). Otherwise, compare 6‑month heat: if Tech is weaker than Staples (XLP) or Utilities (XLU), sit in T‑Bills (BIL). If stronger, hold QLD. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return: 34.1% vs SPY 23.6%, Calmar 1.51—strong risk-adjusted gains. Leveraged tech tilt (QLD/QID) with cash hedges aims for higher upside than SPX; expect larger drawdowns in downturns.

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.
