About

A simple global stock rotation: 40% U.S., 32.5% Europe, 27.5% rest. Each month it picks the best‑recent‑performing ETFs in each region and splits money equally. Includes some 3× U.S. funds (higher risk). Aims ~8–10% returns with <20% drawdowns (not guaranteed).
NutHow it works
It splits your money 40% U.S., 32.5% Europe, 27.5% rest of world. In each region it holds only the 2–3 funds with the best last‑month return (~21 trading days), equal‑weighted. U.S. choices include core S&P 500 (VOO), Nasdaq‑100 (QQQ), equal‑weight S&P (RSP), small‑cap growth (IWO), buybacks (PKW), ex‑“Mag 7” (XMAG), plus high‑risk 3× funds (TQQQ, SPXL, HIBL). Europe/ROW menus are country stock funds (e.g., Germany, Sweden, Poland; Japan, Korea, Australia, Israel, Argentina, NZ). It swaps as leaders change; trims only if weights drift ~3.5%.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this global momentum rotation targets ~53% annualized return with superior risk-adjusted metrics (Sharpe ~2.05, Calmar ~4.62) versus the S&P 500 through diversified regional bets and leader-based selection.

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.
