About

A rule-based, one‑position strategy: seek income or tactical trades when conditions look calm (YieldMax, VIXY/TQQQ on extremes); otherwise sit in T‑Bills, shorting the Nasdaq only when the trend weakens.
NutHow it works
Step 1: Compare 7–10yr Treasuries (IEF) vs an ETF that rises when Nasdaq falls (PSQ). • If bonds win: risk mode — overheated market → VIXY; washed‑out Nasdaq → TQQQ; else pick one YieldMax options‑income ETF tied to big names via short‑term screens. • If bonds don’t win: defense — mostly T‑Bills (SHV); short Nasdaq (PSQ) only if the trend is down. Holds one ETF at a time.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this regime-aware strategy yields 27.6% annualized return with 26.6% max drawdown and a 0.71 Sharpe vs SPY’s 1.44. It diversifies risk with volatility hedges and YieldMax income across regimes.

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.
