About

A daily, rules‑based portfolio that shifts among growth stocks, defensive cash/bonds, gold/oil, and inverse ETFs. ~60% U.S. tactical sleeve, ~20% emerging markets (long or short), ~20% Treasuries. Uses RSI heat, trends, and quick‑drop cues to rotate.
NutHow it works
It splits money: ~60% U.S. stocks, 20% emerging markets, 20% Treasuries. Signals: RSI (0–100 “heat gauge”), trend vs 200‑day line, and quick drops. Hot markets → hedge/short (PSQ=short Nasdaq, EUM=short EM, SSG=short semis). Washed‑out → buy growth (QLD=2x Nasdaq, MGK). Mixed → GLD (gold)/DBO (oil). Treasuries: TLT if strong or oversold; else SHV/BIL (T‑bills). Rebalance daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: annualized return ~43.94% vs SPY 17.29%, Sharpe ~1.94 vs ~0.90, Calmar ~3.15, max drawdown ~13.96% vs ~18.76%. Daily, regime-aware multi-asset rotation with stronger growth and downside protection.

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.
