About

A daily, auto-switching portfolio that allocates to the 3 best recent performers among many mini‑strategies. Uses trend and “hot/cold” signals to toggle between growth (often tech/levered), safety (T‑Bills/bonds/staples), volatility hedges, and shorts.
NutHow it works
It runs many small playbooks (tech uptrends, dip-buys, bond/oil/gold hedges, volatility spikes). Each day it reads simple signals: trend (price vs a long average), hot/cold (RSI), and 10‑day returns. It then picks the 3 playbooks with the best 10‑day returns and splits money equally. In strong markets it leans into tech/levered bulls; in stress or overheated markets it shifts to T‑Bills/bonds, staples, volatility (UVXY), or shorts.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~34.4% vs SPY ~25.6%, Calmar ~3.53; a daily top-3 playbook rotation captures momentum and hedges across assets, delivering higher upside with larger drawdowns in stressed markets.

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.
