About

Daily bet on big banks: 30% in the recent 2‑week winner and 70% in the most volatile bank. If they’re the same, it owns just that one. Highly concentrated, banks‑only, short‑term approach.
NutHow it works
Each day it scans major bank stocks (e.g., JPMorgan, Bank of America, HSBC, Goldman Sachs). It buys two picks: 30% goes to the bank that rose the most over the last 2 weeks; 70% goes to the bank with the biggest day‑to‑day swings over the last 2 weeks. If that’s the same stock, it holds just that one. It repeats daily. Result: a very concentrated, fast‑trading bet on the most active bank names.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this bank-focused strategy beats the S&P on risk-adjusted returns: Sharpe 1.72 vs 1.30, annualized return ~59% vs 21%, Calmar ~3.08. Drawdowns are similar, but upside is much larger due to momentum+volatility bets.

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.
