About

Aggressive, tactical switcher: buys sharp dips in 3× equity ETFs, bets on volatility when stocks look too hot, and shifts to Treasuries or short tech when a risk‑off trend (KMLM) leads. Very high risk.
NutHow it works
It watches a 10‑day RSI (0–100 “heat” score: high=overbought, low=oversold). If broad markets/sectors look overheated, it flips to UVXY, which jumps when stocks wobble. If certain 3× bull ETFs look washed‑out, it buys them for a bounce. Otherwise it compares tech (XLK) to KMLM (a managed‑futures fund): if tech is stronger, buy the 2 most beaten‑down high‑beta funds; if KMLM leads, hold TLT (Treasuries) or SQQQ (3× short tech). High risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~48% annualized return with ~0.94 Sharpe and Calmar ~1.72, vs S&P ~23% annual. Tactical, risk-managed exposure to volatility and bonds targets bigger upside with controlled risk, despite higher drawdowns.

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.
