About

A simple, high-risk strategy that each day buys the 3 most volatile names from a list of tech, biotech, energy, and cryptocurrencies, splits the money evenly, and rebalances daily. It aims to ride big movers, but can swing sharply both up and down.
NutHow it works
Each day it looks back ~3 months and measures which names had the biggest price swings. It picks the top 3 most “bouncy” names from a list of tech, biotech, nuclear/uranium, telecom, and major cryptocurrencies, then splits money evenly among them and rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Volatility-chasing cross-asset strategy with outsized out-of-sample upside: ~116.7% annualized vs SPY ~23.9%, Calmar ~2.52. Note higher volatility and potential 46% drawdowns—best for risk-tolerant, long-horizon investors.

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.
