About

Daily, pick the 5 most volatile among AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL, AMZN, TSLA, META, NVDA, BRK.B, JPM, V, split equally across them and a same-sized slice of cash, and rebalance to harvest swings (buy dips, trim rips).
NutHow it works
Each day it looks at 10 big U.S. stocks and checks which have swung the most over the last month (~20 trading days). It buys the 5 with the biggest recent swings, splits money equally across them and an equal slice of cash, then rebalances daily to buy dips and trim rips.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return ~65% vs ~28% for SPY; Sharpe ~1.69 vs ~1.37; Calmar ~3.22. Daily rebalancing on mega-cap swings with a cash sleeve aims to deliver stronger risk-adjusted upside, despite higher 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.
