About

A rules-based, risk-on/risk-off strategy that rides leveraged stock funds in uptrends, then quickly flips to hedges (VIX, Treasuries, market-neutral, or shorts) when markets look overheated or weak. Tech-heavy on offense; very aggressive—expect big swings.
NutHow it works
1) Check trend: is the S&P 500 above its 200-day average? If yes, go “offense” with fast stock funds (often tech; some 3x). 2) If prices look “too hot” (RSI = a 0–100 speedometer of recent moves), add crash protection using VIX funds (they jump when fear rises) or shift to Treasuries/market‑neutral. 3) If trend weak or volatility spikes, go “defense”: long VIX, long Treasuries, market‑neutral, or inverse stock funds. 4) When calm, it may “sell” volatility (SVXY). Sometimes tilts to gold/silver/commodities when stocks are overheated.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~29.3% annualized vs ~18.2% for SPY, Calmar ~1.03. It rides tech-led uptrends and hedges to limit losses, offering stronger growth with disciplined risk—aware of larger drawdowns in downturns.

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.
