About

A daily crypto‑timing plan. It uses a simple “heat” gauge on BITO to switch between Bitcoin ETFs (BITO/BITX) and T‑bills (BIL). If momentum is strong but not extreme, it splits 50/50 between the 10‑day winner and 4‑day laggard; if too hot, it half‑parks in cash.
NutHow it works
Each day we read a 0–100 “heat” gauge (RSI) on BITO (a 1× Bitcoin‑futures ETF). - If heat ≤50: go to BIL (T‑bills). - If heat >50: risk‑on. • If very hot (>79): 50% BITO, 50% BIL. • Else: hold two slots, 50/50: (1) the better 10‑day performer of BITO or BITX (a 2× Bitcoin‑futures ETF), and (2) the weaker 4‑day performer of the same pair. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~19.46% annualized vs the S&P’s ~18.97%, powered by a disciplined crypto-timing framework (RSI heat gate, 50/50 momentum/mean-reversion) with cash guardrails. Higher upside with risk controls—though drawdowns can be larger than the S&P.

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.
