About

Half the portfolio concentrates in 2 big tech names when they’re trending, otherwise parks in T‑Bills. The other half tactically flips among leveraged tech/semis/energy in uptrends and shifts to crash hedges, bonds, or USD when markets look hot or risky.
NutHow it works
Daily, it splits the account in two. 1) Few Tech: Picks 2 of Apple/NVIDIA/Google/TSMC that have moved the most lately. If each one’s recent trend is positive, hold it; otherwise sit in BIL (T‑Bills). 2) Bull or Bonds: Rotates among leveraged tech/semis/SP500 or energy in uptrends; if things look overheated or a big pop just happened, it briefly buys UVXY (a crash hedge). In weak markets it shifts to volatility hedges (UVXY/VIXM), anti‑beta (BTAL), or Treasuries (TMF)/USD (USDU). Notes: RSI = a 0–100 “heat” meter of recent buying vs selling (high=hot, low=cold). A moving average is a recent average of price/returns used to judge trend.
CheckmarkValue prop
Two-sleeve, rules-based strategy that aims to capture tech leadership with built-in hedges. Provides diversification and upside potential versus the S&P, but comes with higher drawdowns and slightly lower out-of-sample risk-adjusted performance.

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.
