About

A meta‑portfolio that always holds the three mini‑strategies with the best recent trend—typically rotating between growth tech, Treasuries/defensive sectors, and occasional volatility/leveraged funds. High turnover and risk.
NutHow it works
Think of this as a playlist of many tiny rule-based strategies. On each check-in it ranks them by recent 20‑day trend and holds the top 3 equally. Most minis buy U.S. tech in uptrends (QQQ/TQQQ/XLK), then pivot to Treasuries/defensive sectors (TLT, SHY, XLP, XLU) or volatility funds (UVXY/SVXY) when prices look too hot/cold by simple gauges. High turnover; high risk. Key tickers: QQQ=big tech; TQQQ/TECL=3× tech; TLT/SHY=US Treasuries; XLP/XLU=defensive; UVXY/SVXY=volatility; GLD=gold; KMLM=managed‑futures.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.30 vs 0.71; annualized return ~93% vs ~10%; Calmar ~8.5. Drawdown ~11% vs ~4.5%. Rotates top 3 mini‑strategies to ride tech rallies and hedge stress—stronger risk-adjusted gains than the S&P 500.

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.
