About

A daily on/off switch: either a 2× NVIDIA ETF (NVDL) or a T‑bill fund (BIL), based on comparing NVIDIA’s 5‑day volatility to a 2‑day momentum score. Likely sits in cash most of the time; when it flips on, risk is extreme.
NutHow it works
Each day it looks at NVIDIA’s stock. It compares a 5‑day “bumpiness” score (volatility) with a 2‑day momentum score called RSI (0–100; higher = stronger recent gains). If bumpiness > momentum, it buys NVDL—an ETF targeting 2× NVIDIA’s daily move (very risky, semiconductor/AI exposure). Otherwise it holds BIL, a short‑term T‑bill fund (cash‑like). Rebalances daily. Because these scores use different scales, the NVIDIA trade may trigger rarely.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: superior risk-adjusted performance vs the S&P 500. Sharpe 1.58 vs 0.96, Calmar ~1,050, and max drawdown ~1% vs ~19% for SPY. Annualized return ~11.5% (SPY ~18%), with mostly cash and rare, highly selective NVDA exposure—strong downside protection with meaningful upside when volatility spikes.

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.
