About

Daily, it checks the market trend. In uptrends it holds a defensive mega‑cap mix, but briefly flips to a volatility hedge if things look too hot. In downtrends it buys oversold tech rebounds; otherwise stays defensive or market‑neutral.
NutHow it works
First check trend: is the S&P 500 above its 200‑day average? If yes: when a 10‑day heat gauge (RSI, 0–100; >80 = very hot) on major indexes/sectors flashes extreme, go to VIXY (tends to jump when fear/volatility spikes). Otherwise hold a low‑vol mix of mega‑cap stocks, sized by recent calmness. If no: buy quick rebounds in tech/semis via 3× funds (SOXL/TECL) when RSI <30; else if the 30‑day trend is ok keep the mega‑cap mix; otherwise use BTAL (market‑neutral defense).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~52.8% annualized return vs SPY's ~21%, Calmar ~1.91 (downside-adjusted), and positive alpha. Regime-driven with volatility hedges aims for big upside with controlled risk.

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.
