About

Own eBay when its price is above its 50‑day average; otherwise own NVIDIA. A simple, daily trend-following switch between two large US stocks to stay invested with perceived strength.
NutHow it works
Each day, it checks eBay’s price against its 50‑day “moving average” (the average closing price over the last 50 trading days). If today’s price is above that average, it buys/holds EBAY. If it’s not, it buys/holds NVIDIA (NVDA) instead. It repeats this daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
A simple, rule-based rotation between EBAY and NVDA using a 50-day SMA. It provides focused AI/tech exposure and a transparent, emotion-free approach that complements the S&P 500 with a distinct risk/return profile shown in out-of-sample data.

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.
