About

Rules-based switch: if markets wobble, tilt to Treasuries, gold, and the US dollar; otherwise ride the 3 strongest big-tech names. Position sizes favor steadier assets; rebalances only when weights drift about 5%.
NutHow it works
Each day: • If QQQ fell >6% from a recent high (last 10 days), go defensive and favor the steadier of TMF (Treasuries), UUP (US dollar), GLD (gold), plus TQQQ (Nasdaq) and FAS (financials). • Else if TMF fell >7%, use a similar mix tilted to GLD/UUP. • Else risk‑on: 80% in the 3 best 10‑day performers from AAPL, MSFT, AMZN, GOOG/GOOGL, META, NVDA, TSLA, AMD, ADBE, PYPL; 20% in a steadiness‑weighted basket. Rebalance only if weights drift ~5%.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~25% vs ~23% for the S&P, with lower beta (~0.80) and strong risk-adjusted math (Calmar ~1.29). A rules-based risk-on/off framework protects capital and captures mega-cap leadership.

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.
