About

Usually holds global developed stocks (URTH). But when the US is trending up and emerging markets look overheated versus the US, it flips to an inverse EM fund (EUM) to bet on a short‑term EM pullback. Rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
- Baseline: hold a global developed‑markets stock fund (URTH). - First check: is the US market (SPY) in a long‑term uptrend? (price above its 200‑day average). If not, stay in URTH. - If yes, check if emerging markets (EEM) look “overheated” using a short‑term speedometer (RSI). If RSI isn’t very high, stay in URTH. - If EEM is very hot and running stronger than the US, switch to an ETF (EUM) that goes up when emerging markets fall. Recheck daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: higher risk-adjusted return (Sharpe 1.263) and stronger downside control (Calmar 1.279; max drawdown 15.49% vs SPY 18.76%), with beta ~0.87. Returns near-SPY (19.81% vs 20.05%) but with a smoother, safer ride.

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.
