About

Daily switches between a growth mix (QQQ+VOO) and a defensive mix (XLP, XLV, XLU, SCHD) using a simple price trend check on defensive sectors: if any look weak short‑term vs long‑term, go growth; otherwise stay defensive.
NutHow it works
Each day it picks one of two baskets. - Growth: QQQ (big tech) + VOO (broad S&P 500). - Defensive: XLP (everyday staples), XLV (health care), XLU (utilities), SCHD (dividend stocks). It checks each defensive fund: if its recent 10‑day average price falls below its 100‑day average (sign of weakening), it buys the Growth basket 50/50. If none are weakening, it buys the Defensive basket equally.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample performance beats the S&P 500 on risk-adjusted terms: ~33% annualized return, Sharpe ≈1.41, Calmar ≈2.26. A market-aligned, daily growth/defensive rotation with disciplined 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.
