About

A tactical risk-on/risk-off strategy: when market and Bitcoin trends look healthy and calm, it holds an inverse‑volatility mix of META, AMZN, LLY, and MRK; otherwise it parks in short‑term Treasuries (BIL). A niche rule can switch to NVDA when bonds perk up.
NutHow it works
It flips between stocks and cash-like T‑Bills. Risk-on only if: stocks trend up (SPY above 200‑day avg), not too hot/cold (RSI=0‑100 buying/selling gauge), recent losses are small, tech isn’t sliding (QQQ/TQQQ checks), and Bitcoin’s trend is firm (BITO averages). Then it owns META, AMZN, LLY, MRK, sized so steadier names get more. Else it holds BIL. Rarely, if bonds (BND) beat T‑Bills, it buys NVDA.
CheckmarkValue prop
Capital-protecting, risk-managed strategy. In out-of-sample tests, it limits drawdown to 8.2% (vs SPY ~18.8%), shows low market beta and a small positive alpha, offering diversification and smoother risk—even if returns may be more modest.

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.
