About

A simple daily momentum switch: it holds either Latin America stocks (ILF) or developed Asia-Pacific stocks (IPAC), whichever did better over the last month, aiming to ride short bursts of regional strength.
NutHow it works
Every day, it looks at how much each ETF moved over the last 30 trading days. If Latin America (ILF) rose more than Asia-Pacific developed markets (IPAC), it buys ILF. Otherwise it buys IPAC. It puts 100% into the winner and checks again the next day.
CheckmarkValue prop
Aim for higher returns with lower risk: out-of-sample annualized return ~30% vs S&P 16%, max drawdown ~15% vs ~19%, Sharpe ~1.47 vs ~0.92, and beta ~0.64. A simple, fully invested regional momentum play between ILF and IPAC.

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.
