About

An all‑weather mix: levered US stocks, gold, Treasuries, a VIX‑based crash hedge, plus a trend rule that owns global natural resources when rising and parks in short‑term bonds when not. Aims to work across growth, inflation, deflation, and crises.
NutHow it works
Target weights, rebalanced daily: 28% stocks (UPRO = 3x S&P 500), 20% gold (GLD), 20% US Treasuries (10% TMF = 3x 20+yr, 10% TYD = 3x 7–10yr), 8% crash hedge (VIXM = VIX futures). 24% trend sleeve: own GNR (global natural resources) when its price is above its 40‑day average (average of last 40 days); otherwise own BSV (short‑term bonds).
CheckmarkValue prop
All-weather, crisis-hedged mix (gold, long Treasuries, VIX hedge, commodity trend). OOS: ~6.6% annualized vs SPY 13.8%; drawdown ~31.7% vs 22.1%. It adds inflation/crisis protection and diversification to a pure S&P sleeve.

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.
