About

All-in, two‑state switch. If BTAL’s 20‑day strength score beats KMLM’s 10‑day score, buy HIBL (3× high‑beta S&P 500). Otherwise, hold KMLM (managed‑futures trend follower). Very aggressive when in HIBL; diversified when in KMLM.
NutHow it works
It checks a simple “strength score” (RSI) on two funds: BTAL (a defensive, anti‑beta stock strategy) over 20 days and KMLM (a managed‑futures trend follower) over 10 days. RSI runs 0–100; higher = stronger recent gains. If BTAL’s score is higher, it puts 100% into HIBL, a very volatile 3× fund tied to the most volatile S&P 500 stocks (often tech/consumer/financials). Otherwise, it holds KMLM. It only switches when that signal flips.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, the strategy shows ~33% annualized return vs S&P ~20%, with stronger upside and diversification from managed futures. A dynamic risk-on/off rule targets big gains in up markets, but comes with larger drawdown risk.

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.
