About

Own the 3 strongest mega‑cap stocks when big‑tech is trending up, rotate into a basket of safer assets when trend weakens or drops accelerate, and briefly hedge with UVXY when things look “too hot.” Equal‑weight, rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
First, check if QQQ (big‑tech index ETF) is above its 175‑day trend. If not, hold the 3 strongest “safety” ETFs: TMF (3x long Treasuries), PDBC (commodities), GLD (gold), IEO (oil producers), XLU (utilities), USDU (long USD). If trend is up: if QQQ fell >7% in 2 weeks, use the same safety mix; else if it looks overheated (RSI, a ‘too hot’ meter) buy UVXY (volatility hedge); otherwise own the 3 best‑performing mega‑cap stocks. Equal‑weight, rebalance daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 31.6% annualized return vs 19.5% for the S&P; Sharpe ~1.12, Calmar ~1.24, and beta ~0.74. Higher risk-adjusted growth with lower market sensitivity—note drawdowns can be larger 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.
