About

A daily “risk‑on/risk‑off” portfolio that rotates between 3x stock ETFs (S&P/Nasdaq) and defensive assets (long Treasuries, dollar, gold, staples) using trend, volatility, drawdown, and dip‑buying signals across multiple time windows.
NutHow it works
Each day it splits your money across several rule-sets. It checks trend (is the S&P rising), choppiness, quick drops, and which assets are leading. In calm uptrends it leans into 3x stock funds (TQQQ=Nasdaq, UPRO=S&P) plus long Treasuries (TMF). When risk rises, it buys sharp dips or parks in a safety mix: dollar (UUP), gold (GLD), staples (XLP), short‑term Treasuries. It also rotates into tech/biotech when they lead.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return ~30% vs SPY ~18%; a dynamic risk-on/off strategy using leveraged equities with defensive hedges aims for bigger upside while trimming losses. Caveat: drawdowns ~41.6% and slightly lower risk-adjusted return than SPY.

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.
