About

A daily, risk-on/risk-off rotation that tries to beat the S&P 500 with smaller deep losses by buying short-term dips in 3x stock ETFs when conditions are healthy, and switching to Treasuries, dollar, gold, or inverse/volatility hedges when markets look shaky.
NutHow it works
Each day the strategy asks: Are stocks healthy? Are interest rates rising or falling (using a long‑Treasury fund as the gauge)? Did key markets get short‑term “stretched” in the last 5–7 days? • If conditions look good, it buys one 3x stock fund (tech/Nasdaq/semis/S&P) that dipped the most, aiming for a quick rebound. • If risk rises, it flips to safer choices: long/short Treasuries, cash‑like bonds, dollar, gold, or market shorts/volatility.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, the strategy targets about 62% annualized vs 22% for the S&P, with Sharpe ~1.13 and Calmar ~1.79. It combines leveraged equity bets with defensive hedges to chase returns while managing risk; note drawdowns can spike in stress.

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.
