About

An aggressive 55/45 mix of 3x U.S. stocks (UPRO) and 3x long Treasuries (TMF), rebalanced quarterly. Seeks high growth from leverage plus diversification and rebalancing. Simple to run, but very volatile with potential for deep drawdowns.
NutHow it works
Hold 55% UPRO and 45% TMF. UPRO targets about 3x the S&P 500 (large U.S. stocks—tech heavy). TMF targets about 3x long‑term U.S. Treasury bonds (20+ year). Each quarter, rebalance back to 55/45: sell the one that grew more, buy the one that lagged. These two markets often move differently; leveraging both seeks higher growth while rebalancing harvests their swings. Expect big ups and downs.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return ~22.19% vs S&P, via a 55/45 levered UPRO/TMF with quarterly rebalancing. Higher volatility and drawdowns (~36% vs ~19%), but adds diversification and potential upside when stocks and bonds diverge—a growth sleeve to complement the S&P 500.

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.
