About

Uses KMLM’s short-term trend as a market weather vane: if KMLM has been rising, hold KMLM plus T‑bills; if not, hold the S&P 500. Seeks equity exposure in calm times and a diversifying sleeve when macro trends dominate.
NutHow it works
Tickers: KMLM = a managed‑futures ETF (trends in commodities, currencies, rates); BIL = 1–3 month T‑bills (cash‑like); SPY = S&P 500 stocks. Rule: If KMLM’s last 10 trading days return is positive, hold 50% KMLM and 50% BIL. Otherwise, hold 100% SPY. Rebalance mainly when the signal flips or weights drift ~10%.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.20 vs S&P 1.05, drawdowns 12.9% vs 18.8%, annualized return ~19.9% vs 19.3%, and beta ~0.73. Diversified, trend-driven exposure aims to boost returns while reducing risk vs the S&P 500.

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.
