About

When QQQ is overheated, it hedges by buying VXX. When QQQ is deeply oversold, it goes aggressive with TQQQ. Otherwise it holds whichever is most beaten‑down among staples (XLP), long IG bonds (IGLB), or QQQ. Rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
It watches QQQ’s last 10 days using RSI (a quick score of recent up vs down days). If QQQ looks very hot (RSI>79): buy VXX (tends to rise when stocks fall). If very cold (RSI<=28): buy TQQQ (3x QQQ). Otherwise: buy the lowest‑RSI pick among XLP (consumer staples), IGLB (long IG bonds), or QQQ. Checked daily and switched as needed.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~35.5% annualized return vs 28.1% for the S&P, higher Sharpe (~2.63 vs ~2.43) and lower drawdown (~4.7% vs 5.1%). Calmar ~7.5. RSI-driven, single-position rotation for simplicity and resilience.

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.
