About

Beginner‑friendly global stock mix that spreads across US, Europe, and other countries, then regularly owns the recent top performers (some broad index funds, some 3× versions), split evenly. Aims for ~8–10%/yr and to limit big dips over time.
NutHow it works
- Split money: 40% US, 32.5% Europe, 27.5% other countries. - In each region, look at roughly the last month and buy the recent winners (top 3 in US/Europe, top 2 elsewhere), split evenly. - US picks mix broad index funds (S&P 500, Nasdaq, small‑caps) and some 3× “turbo” versions that can swing a lot. - Rebalance if weights drift ~3.5%.
CheckmarkValue prop
Strong out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~2.05 vs SPY ~1.81, and annualized return ~53% vs ~22%, with solid risk controls (Calmar ~4.62). Global momentum approach targets top performers to boost upside while diversifying risk beyond 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.
