Own Apple most of the time. When the market weakens, buy QQQ on sharp selloffs or switch to PSQ (inverse QQQ) or BSV (short‑term bonds) when tech stays weak. Uses trend and RSI signals to sidestep big drops while keeping trades low.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
1) Check market trend with SPY (S&P 500 fund). If its 21‑day average price is above its 210‑day average, hold Apple (AAPL). 2) Otherwise, look at QQQ (big‑tech fund). If its RSI (0–100 “heat” gauge; <30 = very sold off) is <30, buy QQQ. 3) Else, if QQQ is below its 20‑day average, hold whichever is stronger now: PSQ (moves up when QQQ falls) or BSV (short‑term bonds). 4) Otherwise, hold Apple. Rechecked daily.

Out-of-sample annualized return ~28.4% vs SPY ~18.7%, with lower beta (~0.65) and solid Calmar ~1.30, Sharpe ~1.12 over ~1490 days. Tech-driven, trend-based approach aims to trim risk and capture upside when conditions favor.
The goal of this symphony is to invest in Apple Inc over a long term while avoiding large crashes. Another benefit of this symphony is keeping the number of trades executed per year down to a minimum. The years where the market experiences a crash will be the years where the symphony makes the most trades.
