About

Daily switch. If volatility (via VIXM) is surging, move 100% to SPXU (3x inverse S&P 500). Otherwise, hold the two least‑volatile YieldMax option‑income ETFs tied to AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, and AMD, equally weighted.
NutHow it works
Each day: 1) Check VIXM (an ETF tied to stock‑market volatility). If a 40‑day “speedometer” of its price moves (RSI) is above 69—meaning volatility is surging—hold SPXU (a 3x inverse S&P 500 fund). 2) Otherwise, from four YieldMax option‑income funds linked to AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, and AMD (they use options to pay high income), pick the two with the calmest last‑10‑day returns and split money 50/50. Rebalance daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: annual return 24.74% vs S&P 500 23.99%; Calmar 1.13 (strong risk-adjusted). Dynamic hedge: -3x SPXU during volatility surges and income-focused tech-name legs in calm markets. Higher upside potential with some drawdown risk vs SPY.

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.
