About

A trend‑driven portfolio that leans hard into growth when the S&P 500 is strong, keeps a steady bonds+gold ballast, rotates to low‑volatility stocks and utilities when momentum fades, and adds small crash hedges if the near‑term trend breaks.
NutHow it works
Built from five equal sleeves using the S&P 500 (SPY) vs its 200‑ and 100‑day averages. - Strong uptrend: add high‑growth bets (leveraged Nasdaq/semis and aerospace), keep a core in value/mega‑caps, plus bonds+gold and some low‑vol stocks. - Weaker: rotate to low‑vol stocks, utilities, bonds, gold. - Below 100‑day: add small crash hedges (inverse equity) and levered Treasuries/gold.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 2.17 vs SPY 1.29; annualized return 72.5% vs 17.8%; Calmar 5.75; alpha 0.31. Higher risk-adjusted upside with trend-following and ballast—stronger long-run growth than SPY (note larger drawdowns).

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.
