About

Adaptive All‑Weather mix (Stocks ~30%, Bonds ~55%, Commodities ~15%) with fear and interest‑rate switches. Uses 2–3x funds in good trends and shifts to defensive, U.S. dollar, or bear funds when stress/rates rise. K‑1 free, threshold rebalancing (~10%).
NutHow it works
Goal: profit in any economy via 3 buckets—Stocks ~30%, Bonds ~55%, Commodities ~15%. A fear switch parks in T‑bills; if the trend still points up, it may buy one 2x stock/oil fund on a dip. In normal times: Stocks use 2–3x S&P/Nasdaq/sector funds in good times; when rates rise, it shifts to defensive sectors, a low‑vol fund, the U.S. dollar, and can use bear funds. Bonds: long Treasuries (often 3x) when rates fall; dollar/short‑bond/inverse‑Treasury funds when rates rise. Commodities: broad basket + recent leaders. RSI = 0–100 speed gauge.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: a risk-controlled, multi-asset strategy with Calmar ~1.20 and max drawdown ~18.3%, designed to protect in stress while pursuing upside through regime shifts and selective leverage (K‑1 free).

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.
