About

Rules-driven ETF portfolio that flips between risk-on (tech/growth) and risk-off (cash, Treasuries, gold) using credit trends, RSI stretch, and volatility. Includes a small VIX sleeve (SVIX/VXX) to fade extreme fear/greed. Daily rebalanced.
NutHow it works
It watches three things: trend (which assets are rising), stretch (RSI: a 0–100 heat gauge; >80 overheated, <25 washed‑out), and volatility (how jumpy prices are). If credit and stocks trend well and vol is calm, it owns growth/tech (e.g., SOXX, QQQ, MGK). If not, it moves to cash (BIL/SGOV), Treasuries (TLT/TMF), gold (GLD), or hedges (TWM, EEV, SRS, BTAL). A small sleeve trades the VIX (VXX/SVIX) around extremes. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~+5.45% annualized vs SPY -3.53%; Sharpe ~0.35 vs -0.13; beta ~0.49; Calmar ~1.19. A rules-based risk-on/off mix with a volatility sleeve aims for higher risk-adjusted gains with comparable drawdown risk.

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.
