About

A defensive “bear block”: usually sits in T‑Bills. When the S&P 500 turns bearish, it tactically shorts the tech‑heavy Nasdaq‑100 using inverse/leveraged ETFs (high risk), occasionally flipping long for brief bounces. Rebalances daily.
NutHow it works
Daily rules. If markets look overheated or washed‑out (RSI: a 0–100 “hot/cold” gauge of recent moves), park in BIL (T‑Bills). If SPY (S&P 500) is above its 200‑day trend, stay in BIL. If below, a bear engine mostly shorts the Nasdaq‑100 (QQQ) via PSQ (‑1x) or SQQQ (‑3x), and rarely goes long QQQ/TQQQ (+3x) on bounces. Bond ETFs (TLT, IEF) break ties. Two sleeves are blended, favoring the calmer one.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~28.6% annualized return vs ~17.1% for the S&P; max drawdown ~13.9% vs ~18.8%; Sharpe ~1.26 vs ~0.97; Calmar ~2.06. Bear-leaning, tactical allocation reduces downside while preserving upside.

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.
