About

Own SPY unless BDRY’s 60‑day RSI is ≤50 and SPY is below its 20‑day average. In that case, hold BIL (T‑bills). BDRY is a shipping‑rates ETF used as a global‑trade strength signal.
NutHow it works
Daily check: - BDRY = an ETF tied to dry‑bulk shipping rates (a proxy for global trade). Compute its 60‑day RSI (a 0–100 strength gauge; >50 means more up than down). If >50 → buy SPY (S&P 500 stocks). - Else, see if SPY’s price is above its 20‑day average (a simple trend line). If yes → buy SPY; if not → move to BIL (1–3 month T‑bills). It stays in stocks unless both signals are weak.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers stronger risk-adjusted performance and far better downside protection than the S&P 500: Sharpe 1.39 vs 1.04; Calmar 1.87; max drawdown 8.6% vs 18.8%; ~16.1% annualized return.

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.
