About

Daily, rules‑based QQQ strategy. In uptrends: hold QQQ unless it’s overheated, then use VIXY. In downtrends: buy sharp dips in QQQ/SPY; otherwise rotate between PSQ (short QQQ) and TLT (Treasuries) based on short‑term strength.
NutHow it works
Step 1: Is the broad market (SPY) above its 200‑day average? If yes, usually hold QQQ (big tech). If QQQ’s or SPY’s 10‑day RSI (a short‑term “heat” gauge: high = too hot) is very high, briefly switch to VIXY (volatility hedge). If SPY is below its 200‑day average, hunt for rebounds when RSI is very low; if none, and QQQ is below its 20‑day average, own the stronger of PSQ (short QQQ) or TLT (Treasuries). Otherwise, hold PSQ if washed‑out, else QQQ.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy posts about 47.5% annualized returns vs SPY’s ~38%, with a Calmar around 6—strong risk-adjusted upside. It captures uptrends and hedges drawdowns via VIXY/PSQ/TLT, though max drawdowns exceed 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.
