About

A daily, rules‑based, leveraged strategy: ride tech/growth uptrends and buy sharp dips; when markets look overheated or shaky, shift to crash insurance, Treasuries, cash‑like bills, market‑neutral, or shorts. Very aggressive; expect large swings.
NutHow it works
Each day it splits money between offense and defense. Offense: buys 3x stock funds when they look washed‑out (RSI = an overbought/oversold gauge) and rides uptrends (above long‑term averages). Defense: when stocks look hot or jumpy, it buys crash insurance (UVXY/VIXY), Treasuries (TMF when rates fall, TMV when they rise), cash‑like bills (BIL/SHV), market‑neutral (BTAL), or shorts (SQQQ/SPXU). It may rotate to gold/silver/commodities when stocks are overheated.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this dynamic 3x strategy targets higher growth (~47% annualized) vs the S&P 500 (~18%), with Sharpe ~1.09 and Calmar ~2.0. Expect larger swings, but active hedging and defense tilt protect risk-adjusted gains.

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.
