About

Daily trend-following: when the S&P 500 is in a long-term uptrend, hold 3× S&P exposure via UPRO; otherwise sit in short-term T‑bills (BIL). Seeks to ride big bull markets and step aside during major downtrends.
NutHow it works
Each day it looks at SPY (a big fund that tracks the S&P 500). If SPY’s price is above its long‑term average over ~200 trading days, it goes “risk on” and puts 100% into UPRO (a fund aiming for 3× the S&P 500’s daily move). Otherwise it parks 100% in BIL (very short‑term U.S. Treasury bills).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return 38.7% vs SPY 20.3%, Calmar 1.38. Trend-following: 3x on uptrends, T-bills on declines—aimed at superior long-run growth with strong risk-adjusted upside.

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.
