About

Binary RSI-based strategy: if XLP’s 10-day RSI > 77, allocate 50% to VIXY and 50% to a 50/50 mix of TLT and BTAL; else allocate 100% to BIL (short-term T-bills).
NutHow it works
The strategy monitors XLP (consumer staples) and computes its 10-day RSI. If the RSI exceeds 77, you allocate fully into a volatility/hedge mix: 50% VIXY (volatility exposure) and 50% into an alternate sleeve that splits 50/50 between TLT (long-duration Treasuries) and BTAL (hedging/volatility ETF). If the RSI is not above 77, you allocate 100% to BIL (short-term Treasuries, cash-like asset). There is no ongoing automatic rebalancing beyond this signal-driven switch; the 0.1 corridor is a technical parameter for drift tolerance. Tickers: VIXY = volatility, TLT = long-term Treasuries, BTAL = hedging/volatility, BIL = short-term Treasuries. XLP RSI is the trigger; 77 is the cutoff; the rule is evaluated to decide between the VIX Blend and BIL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Capital-protection: out-of-sample drawdown ~3% vs ~19% for SPY; Calmar ~1.23; beta near zero. Returns ~3.6% vs ~17.8%, but risk-adjusted results stay steadier thanks to volatility hedges and cash-like safety on triggers.

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.
