About

Daily‑rebalanced US stock strategy split across S&P 500, Nasdaq‑100, Dow, and small‑caps. Rides uptrends with the strongest (often 3x) fund, flips to VIXY when markets look overheated, and shifts to defensive or tamer funds in downtrends.
NutHow it works
Splits money into 4 sleeves: S&P 500 (35%), Nasdaq‑100 (30%), Dow (20%), Small‑caps (15%). Daily, per sleeve: If price > its 200‑day average, buy the strongest 1x/2x/3x index fund—unless markets look overheated (RSI, a 0–100 heat gauge, is very high), then hold VIXY (benefits when volatility jumps). If ≤200‑day: if tech is extremely oversold (RSI very low) buy TECL for a bounce; else use a tamer 1x fund or go defensive in BTAL.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers higher risk-adjusted returns and stronger upside vs the S&P 500: Sharpe ~1.35 vs ~1.10; annualized return ~72% vs ~20%; max drawdown ~24% vs ~19%; Calmar ~2.94. Diversified, daily-rebalanced, volatility-hedged.

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.
