About

Fast, tactical rotation that buys oversold tech in uptrends and hedges or goes defensive when markets look overheated or weak, using leveraged tech, volatility and inverse ETFs, plus cash‑like T‑bills, Treasuries, gold, and the U.S. dollar.
NutHow it works
An event‑driven “buy the dip, sell the rip” rotator. Trend: is the S&P 500 above its 200‑day avg? RSI = quick “hot/cold” gauge (>~80 hot, <~30 cold). - Uptrend: buy oversold tech/semis via 3x funds (e.g., TQQQ/TECL/SOXL); otherwise park in T‑bills/short Treasuries (BIL/SHV/SHY/STIP). - Overheated or big 1‑day pops: hedge with volatility (UVXY/VIXY) or short funds (SQQQ/SPXS). - Downtrend: favor hedges, bonds (TLT/IEF), gold (UGL) or USD (UUP).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this tech-rotation strategy targets higher upside (30.4% annualized) vs SPY's 17.9%, with a 0.62 Calmar. Note bigger drawdowns (~49% vs ~19%). Higher risk, higher potential alpha for risk-tolerant investors.

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.
