About

Holds 10 major NASDAQ names when each is trending up; otherwise that stock’s slice shifts to a defensive mix of Treasuries (TLT), gold (GLD), and real estate (VNQ). Equal‑weighted across 10 slots, checked and rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
The portfolio has 10 equal “slots” for: Apple, Microsoft, Google (Alphabet), Amazon, Nvidia, Tesla, Meta, Netflix, Adobe, Intel. Each day, for each stock: if its ~50‑day average price is above its ~200‑day average (an uptrend), that 10% holds the stock. If not, that 10% goes 33% TLT (long‑term US Treasuries), 33% GLD (gold), 34% VNQ (US real estate).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy shows risk-adjusted appeal: Sharpe 0.68, Calmar 0.62, 11.98% annualized return, 19.43% max drawdown, beta 0.80. Captures mega-cap upside with a defensive mix to dampen risk vs the S&P 500.

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.
