About

Three buckets: a 55/45 core of 3x S&P 500 and 3x long Treasuries for growth and ballast, a 25% cash-like T‑bill buffer, and a 25% tech sleeve that shifts between 3x Nasdaq‑100 and 3x semis based on recent calmness; only rebalances on big drifts.
NutHow it works
Your money is split into three buckets. 1) 50%: a 55/45 mix of funds that try to triple daily moves of S&P 500 stocks (UPRO) and long‑term U.S. Treasury bonds (TMF). 2) 25%: cash‑like T‑bills (BIL). 3) 25%: tech boosters—Nasdaq‑100 (TQQQ) and semiconductor stocks (SOXL). It leans toward whichever was calmer over ~90 days. Rebalances only if parts drift ~15% from targets. 3x funds can swing fast both ways.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return: 23.64% vs SPY 20.26%, with cash buffer and Calmar ≈0.60. More upside from leveraged tech/bond exposure, but bigger drawdowns (~39.7%) and lower OOS Sharpe—for risk-tolerant, growth-focused investors.

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.
