About

Own 3 strong biotech stocks when the biotech sector (IBB) is in an uptrend; otherwise rotate into bonds and defensive sector ETFs (some leveraged), picking the most oversold for bounce potential. Rebalances monthly.
NutHow it works
Each month it checks if biotech is trending up by comparing IBB’s recent average price (50‑day) to its long‑term average (200‑day). If up, it buys 3 biotech stocks with the strongest recent price strength (RSI: higher = stronger). If not, it shifts to a 75/25 mix of bond/defensive ETFs, buying the two most beaten‑down names (low RSI) in each basket.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample testing shows this regime-switching biotech strategy beats the S&P 500: capture rallies with 3 momentum-biotech picks when IBB trends up, and cushion declines with a disciplined 75/25 defensive/bond rotation, monthly rebalanced.

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.
