About

Rules-based portfolio split between a booster and a core. Uses hot/cold and trend checks on QQQ/SPY to hedge with volatility when too hot, buy 2× Nasdaq/Tech on deep dips, and otherwise hold diversified stocks+gold or T‑Bills.
NutHow it works
Split in two halves: a Booster and a Core. RSI is a quick 0–100 heat gauge of recent moves (>79 very hot, <30 very cold). A 200‑day average checks the trend. - If Nasdaq (QQQ) is very hot: shift to volatility funds (UVXY/VIXY) or T‑Bills (BIL). - If trend (SPY) is up: on very cold readings buy a 2× Nasdaq/Tech fund (QLD/ROM); otherwise hold a stock+gold core (NTSX+GDE or VOO+IXUS+GLD). - If trend is down: use T‑Bills or the cautious core.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~5 vs ~1.8; annualized return ~104% vs ~18%; Calmar ~29. All-weather hedges and dip-buy tech exposure deliver higher risk-adjusted returns with controlled drawdowns versus the S&P.

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.
