About

A monthly, rules-based barbell: buys innovation/AI (ARKK, QQQ, SKYY), clean energy (ICLN, TAN), and crypto proxies (BITO, ETHE) when signals are favorable, and parks each slice in cash-like T‑bills (BIL) when they’re not.
NutHow it works
Monthly, it targets: 25% ARKK, 25% QQQ, 10% each SKYY, ICLN, TAN, BITO, ETHE. Each slice buys that fund only if a safety check passes; otherwise it sits in BIL (T‑bills cash). Checks: ARKK & SKYY use a “heat” gauge (RSI; below 70 = not overheated). QQQ uses a long‑term trend check. ICLN & TAN need a positive last‑30‑day return. BITO & ETHE need price above long‑term averages.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return ~54.7% vs SPY ~33.7%; Calmar ~5.83 shows strong risk-adjusted upside. A rules-based barbell trims risk with BIL when signals fail, aiming for higher growth with built‑in risk control vs the S&P 500.

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.
