About

A rules‑based “gas‑and‑brakes” system that rotates between 3× stock ETFs in uptrends and bonds/cash/volatility hedges when markets overheat or break trend, picking the best‑recent playbooks and sizing toward lower‑volatility ones.
NutHow it works
Each day it picks the 3 best‑recent “playbooks” and splits money, favoring steadier ones. It checks: market trend (price vs long‑term average), “hot/cold” readings (RSI = a speedometer of recent moves), bond trend, and volatility spikes. In uptrends it owns 3× stock funds (e.g., Nasdaq/S&P). If overheated or trend breaks, it shifts to Treasuries (long or inverse), cash‑like T‑bills, low‑vol/anti‑beta, or volatility hedges.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~27.9% annualized vs SPY ~21.6%, driven by adaptive playbooks, trend/RSI gates, and hedges. Diversified, rules-based strategy designed for higher upside with active risk controls vs 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.
