About

A daily trend-following, risk-on/risk-off mix. If SPY is above its 200‑day average, hold small‑cap value, 3x tech, 3x long Treasuries, and gold. Otherwise, shift to gold and long Treasuries. Uses leveraged funds; expect larger swings.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks if the S&P 500 (SPY) is above its 200‑day moving average (the average price over ~9 months). If above: 10% AVUV, 23.34% TQQQ (3x Nasdaq‑100), 33.33% TMF (3x long Treasuries), 33.33% GLD (gold). If not: 50% GLD, 50% TLT (long Treasuries). Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy beats SPY on risk-adjusted returns: ~52.7% annualized vs 41.7%, Calmar ~6.5, plus alpha. Diversified across small-cap value, Nasdaq momentum, gold, and Treasuries. Higher upside, but larger swings.

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.
