About

A daily, rules-based blend that tries to ride stock uptrends with 3x funds, buy dips carefully, and hide in T‑bills or hedges (long bonds, short Nasdaq, VIX) when risk spikes. It spreads decisions across multiple time windows to cut whipsaws.
NutHow it works
Daily it blends three rule-sets. In calm, up-trending markets it rides turbo stock funds (3x S&P 500/ Nasdaq) and sometimes pairs them with long bonds. If markets fall or get choppy, it either buys dips, parks in T‑bills, or hedges with short Nasdaq or a VIX note. It runs the same idea across many lookbacks to smooth signals.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy targets ~48% annual returns vs 23% for the S&P, with Calmar ~1.24 and Sharpe ~1.08. It rides uptrends with leverage, while hedging risk with T-bills, bonds, short Nasdaq and VIX for smoother, upside growth.

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.
