About

A daily, rule-based switcher: hedge in panics, buy rebounds with leveraged stock funds when markets look washed out, and otherwise sit in cash-like ETFs. Adds safety brakes and a check versus a trend-following fund (KMLM) to decide when to take risk.
NutHow it works
What it tries to do, in plain English: - Each day it checks “hot/cold” meters (RSI: 0–100) on fear (VXX) and on big indexes. Under ~30 = washed‑out; over ~80 = overheated. - Panic? Buy protection (VXX or 3× inverse S&P). - Washed‑out? Buy rebounds using 3× tech/market funds (e.g., TQQQ, SPXL, TECL, SOXL), picking the 2 most beaten‑down lately. - No edge? Sit in cash‑like ETFs (BIL/SGOV/BOXX). - Extra brakes: if a quick drop hits, or bonds get wild, go to cash. It also compares tech’s momentum vs KMLM (a trend‑following fund); if KMLM looks stronger, it stays defensive.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 37.16% annualized return vs SPY’s 35.31%, with built-in crash hedges and brakes to guard during panics, plus selective leveraged exposure to capture rallies. Drawdowns can be larger (16% vs 5%).

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.
