About

A daily, rules-based “go with what’s working” portfolio. It buys strong trends (often 3x tech/US stocks), buys dips when washed out, and hedges or switches to bonds/gold/cash or volatility when markets overheat. Includes EM, energy, and KMLM for diversification.
NutHow it works
Daily it asks: 1) Is price hot or cold (RSI = speed-of-move gauge)? 2) Is the trend up or down (moving averages)? 3) Did we just lurch (1–6 day swings)? If risk is on, it rides strong areas with 3x stock/tech funds. If risk is off, it flips to bonds, gold, cash, or volatility hedges. It can go long/short gold, bonds, EM, oil/gas. Adds KMLM (managed‑futures) as a diversifier that often helps in bear markets.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers Sharpe ~4.16 vs SPY 2.37, ~72% vs 28% annualized return, and Calmar ~13.8, with dynamic hedging and diversified assets to beat the S&P while managing drawdowns.

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.
