About

A tactical, leveraged risk‑parity mix. Stays aggressive when tech stocks and long Treasuries are calm; if either tumbles, it tilts toward gold and the U.S. dollar. Keeps a small T‑bill sleeve. Very high risk due to 3x funds.
NutHow it works
It watches for sharp 10‑day drops: if the Nasdaq 100 falls >6% or long‑term U.S. Treasuries fall >7%, it flips to Risk‑Off—tilting toward gold and the U.S. dollar via lower‑volatility weights. Otherwise it’s Risk‑On—blending 3x Nasdaq, 3x financials, and 3x long Treasuries. ~15% sits in T‑bills.
CheckmarkValue prop
Strong risk-adjusted edge: out-of-sample Sharpe ~14.9 vs SPY ~2, near-zero beta, low drawdowns, and diversified regime-switching exposure to gold/USD when stress hits.

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.
