About

Daily, buy SOXX only after a sharp pullback (10‑day RSI < 30); otherwise hold SHV (very short‑term U.S. Treasuries). Aims to catch rebounds in chip stocks while staying mostly in cash‑like T‑bills when not oversold.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks a 0–100 recent-move score (RSI) over 10 days for SOXX (a fund of chip stocks). If the score is below 30, it buys SOXX to try to catch a rebound. Otherwise it sits in SHV (very short‑term U.S. Treasuries; cash‑like). It also compares BIL (T‑bills) vs IEF (7–10yr Treasuries), but in this version that check doesn’t change the decision.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample resilience: ~14.9% annualized return with 9.1% max drawdown, Calmar 1.63, beta 0.50, Sharpe 0.97. Lower risk and drawdowns than the S&P 500 while still offering meaningful upside via semiconductors.

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.
