About

Trend + momentum. If SPY is above its 200‑day average, hold the single top 3‑month performer from a list of big stocks (plus SHY). If not, rotate into the top bond fund (TLT, JNK, SHY, or MUB). Rebalanced monthly.
NutHow it works
Monthly rule: if SPY is above its ~200‑day average, go Risk ON; else Risk OFF. Risk ON: 100% in the best ~3‑month performer from Apple, Nvidia, Microsoft, Alphabet/Google, Amazon, Lockheed Martin, Exxon Mobil, Costco, T‑Mobile, or SHY (short‑term Treasuries). Risk OFF: hold the top bond fund over ~3 months: TLT (long Treasuries), JNK (high‑yield), SHY (short Treasuries), or MUB (municipal bonds). Note: BRK.B isn’t used.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy posts ~60% annualized return, Sharpe ~1.88 and Calmar ~2.60—far above SPY (~15% return, ~0.87 Sharpe). A disciplined risk-on/off rotation targets mega-cap momentum with focused risk control.

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.
