About

A rules-based, multi-bucket portfolio: chase short tech uptrends with leveraged funds, hedge fast with volatility/cash when markets overheat, and keep separate bond/safe-haven sleeves rotating to what’s stable. Designed to ride bursts and cut drawdowns.
NutHow it works
Your money is split into buckets. When tech is trending up, it buys aggressive tech funds; after big pops or if things look “too hot,” it adds volatility hedges or moves to cash. Bonds and safe‑haven mixes run in parallel, rotating to what’s most stable. Signals: RSI, trends, drawdowns, volatility.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers superior risk-adjusted returns with far smaller drawdowns than the S&P 500: Sharpe 2.07 vs 1.44, Calmar 3.09, max drawdown 6.6% vs 18.8%, and low beta (~0.15). Durable upside with capital protection.

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.
