About

A fast, high‑risk, daily strategy: ride short bursts in leveraged tech/semis when conditions are friendly, but quickly flip to hedges (inverse ETFs, volatility) or Treasury trades when markets look overheated or weak. The bond market guides the risk switch.
NutHow it works
Daily: 1) It gauges whether stocks are hot or cold (RSI = a 0–100 “temperature” of recent moves) and where prices sit vs recent averages. 2) It cross‑checks bonds (cash‑like T‑bills vs longer Treasuries) to pick risk‑on or risk‑off. 3) Risk‑on: ride leveraged tech/semis (TQQQ, SOXL, UPRO/TECL). Risk‑off or overheated/weak: flip to hedges/vol (SQQQ, SOXS, UVXY) or Treasury trades (TMF/TMV); sometimes gold/commodities, dollar, or cash.
CheckmarkValue prop
High-upside strategy with strong oos results: annualized return ~50.66% vs S&P 500 ~21.54%, Calmar ~0.98. Bond-guided regime switching pursues leveraged tech rallies while hedging spikes. Note: oos drawdown ~51%—higher risk, higher potential.

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.
