About

A tactical gold-centric strategy that flips between leveraged long/short gold and miners using short‑term overbought/oversold signals, and in neutral periods mixes in Bitcoin and the U.S. dollar. Equal‑weighted and rule‑driven.
NutHow it works
GLL=2x inverse gold; JDST=2x inverse gold miners; UGL=2x gold; NUGT=2x miners; GLD=gold; UUP=U.S. dollar; GBTC=Bitcoin. Daily rules: RSI = 0–100 “heat meter.” - If GLD 10‑day RSI >77: hold GLL+JDST (50/50). - Else if RSI <33: hold UGL+NUGT (50/50). - Else if GLD up >~6.5% in 7 days: hold GLL+JDST. - Else: if UUP 10‑day RSI >36: hold GLD+UUP+GBTC (1/3 each); otherwise hold JDST+GBTC (50/50). Equal‑weight; no set rebalance.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~48% annualized return, Sharpe ~1.46, Calmar ~2.30 vs SPY’s ~20% return and weaker risk metrics. This regime-aware, gold/crypto/dollar strategy offers diversification and upside beyond the S&P with disciplined 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.
