About

Daily mean‑reversion: own SOXX (semiconductor stocks) only after a sharp short‑term drop (10‑day RSI < 30). Otherwise sit in SHV (very short‑term Treasuries). The BIL vs IEF check is present but doesn’t affect the decision.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks SOXX’s 10‑day RSI, a 0–100 score of recent price moves (low = recently fell, high = recently rose). If RSI < 30 (washed‑out), buy SOXX (semiconductor stocks). Otherwise hold SHV (very short‑term U.S. Treasuries). It also compares BIL (cash‑like T‑bills) vs IEF (7–10yr Treasuries), but in this setup that check doesn’t change the final choice.
CheckmarkValue prop
Sharper risk-adjusted gains with tighter downside: out-of-sample drawdown 9.1% vs S&P 18.8%, Calmar ~1.65, and ~15% annualized return vs S&P ~20%. Low beta (~0.5) offers steadier performance in volatile markets.

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.
