About

A simple on/off switch: if KMLM drops >~2% over the last 10 days, go into SVXY (a fund that benefits when market volatility calms). Otherwise sit in BIL (T‑bills). High risk when in SVXY; otherwise cash‑like.
NutHow it works
It watches KMLM’s past 10 trading‑day return. KMLM is a trend‑following “managed futures” fund across commodities, currencies, and bonds, used here as a market weather vane. If it fell more than ~2% in 10 days, buy SVXY (profits when stock‑market turbulence eases). Otherwise hold BIL (cash‑like T‑bills). Checked daily; switches only when the rule flips.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 12.6% annualized return, SPY beta ~0.49, max drawdown ~10% vs ~19% for SPY, Calmar ~1.21. A risk-conscious strategy seeking steadier, downside-resilient growth to complement 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.
