by Composer Technologies · via Composer
A rules‑driven tech/semiconductor swing strategy. It gauges fear (via UVXY), then flips between 3x bull/bear semis, Nasdaq, or safety (bonds, dollar, volatility) using short‑term drops/rips and trend filters. Very active and high risk.

The text the rules are quoted from, with where it came from.
1) Measure fear with UVXY’s RSI (a 0–100 “speed of gains” score; >70 = hot/overbought, <30 = cold/oversold) to pick High/Medium/Low volatility mode.<br>2) In each mode, watch semiconductors (SMH). On sharp 1‑day drops/rips and RSI extremes, flip between SOXL (3x long semis), SOXS (3x short), or park some in SHY; add hedges (UVXY/VIXM, UUP) when vol jumps.<br>3) If the S&P 500 is in an uptrend (above its 200‑day average), use a “normal” plan: trend/RSI checks choose SOXL or SMH, or a basket of top chip stocks; otherwise lean safer (SHY/BSV).<br>4) In calm times, it “buys the dip” in big tech funds; in panic, it toggles TMF/TMV (long/short long‑Treasuries).
A rules‑driven tech/semiconductor swing strategy. It gauges fear (via UVXY), then flips between 3x bull/bear semis, Nasdaq, or safety (bonds, dollar, volatility) using short‑term drops/rips and trend filters. Very active and high risk.
Out-of-sample edge: ~32.4% annualized return vs ~20.7% for the S&P 500. Uses hedges to capture big tech/semis moves; higher upside potential, but expect higher volatility and larger drawdowns in stressed markets.
