About

Buys the 5 weakest developed‑country stock market funds each day (based on 200‑day returns), splits money evenly, and rebalances daily—a contrarian “buy the dip” country rotation across markets like the US, Japan, UK, Germany, and Canada.
NutHow it works
Each day it looks at stock market funds for developed countries (US—SPY, Japan—EWJ, UK—EWU, Germany—DAX, Canada—EWC, etc.). It checks each fund’s return over ~10 months (200 trading days), buys the 5 worst performers, splits money equally, and rebalances daily. It’s a “buy the dip” bet.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 18.8% annualized return vs 16.2% S&P, lower drawdown (14% vs 19%), higher Sharpe (1.19) and Calmar ~1.34. Diversified, daily-rebalanced 'buy the dip' in developed markets.

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.
