About

Clones Kensico Capital’s disclosed stock picks by default, but flips to PSQ (short QQQ) during specific QQQ bursts/bounces using 200‑day, 10‑day, and 5‑day checks to manage risk and tilt against short-term froth.
NutHow it works
Uses QQQ (big-tech index fund) as a market thermometer. If QQQ is above its 200‑day average price, it’s Risk‑On; otherwise Risk‑Off. Most of the time it holds a Kensico Capital 13F stock basket (MSFT, V, META, etc.). It flips to PSQ (the inverse of QQQ) when QQQ gets very hot over ~10 days (~+6.5%) or when there’s a short bounce during a downtrend. Trades only when these signals change.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: 6.60% annual return, 4.91% max drawdown, Calmar 1.35, beta ~0.93. SPY delivers higher raw return, but this strategy offers lighter market beta and an integrated hedge via regime-switching, aiding steadier risk-adjusted growth.

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.
