About

Daily tactical ETF rotation using trend (200‑day), momentum (RSI), bond and dollar trends, plus a TIP vs STIP “weather” check to switch among SPY/QQQ, semiconductors, tech, gold, staples, commodities, or a defensive U.S. dollar/market‑neutral mix.
NutHow it works
Rebalanced daily. First, a trend test: Is SPY (S&P 500) above its 200‑day average? If yes, it holds the hotter choice by RSI (0–100 recent‑move score) between SPY and a macro pick. If no, it goes defensive. Offense: big tech (QQQ), semiconductors (SMH), or, when a TIPS signal is strong, 2× index funds (QLD/SSO). Defense: U.S. dollar (USDU), market‑neutral (BTAL), staples (XLP), gold (GLD), or, if the dollar trend is up, commodities (PDBC/OILK/XLB/GDXJ).
CheckmarkValue prop
Higher risk-adjusted returns with far smaller drawdowns. Daily ETF-rotation strategy blends trend, momentum, bonds and dollar signals. OOS: 31.45% annualized vs 24.62%; Sharpe ~1.72 vs 1.47; max DD 8.41% vs 18.76%.

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.
