About

Aggressive, daily‑tactical mix: ride stock uptrends with 3x tech/market ETFs, buy sharp dips, and flip to a volatility fund (UVXY) when markets look overheated. If risk rises or bonds lead, park in T‑Bills. Very high risk and turnover.
NutHow it works
It splits money across three behaviors: 1) ride uptrends with 3x stock ETFs, 2) buy tech/semis after big drops, 3) when a “heat meter” of recent gains says euphoria—or after huge one‑day spikes—buy a volatility fund (UVXY). If fear or bond strength rises, move to T‑Bills. Checks daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~24.6% annualized return vs ~20.2% for the S&P, with higher upside but higher drawdown (~33% vs ~19%). Calmar ~0.74 - strong risk-adjusted profile; amplified bets excel in bull markets.

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.
