About

A daily, rules-based portfolio: growth via leveraged tech/US stocks, a large bond momentum sleeve, a small short‑vol sleeve, and sizable crash hedges. It adds risk when trends are strong, shifts to volatility hedges or T‑bills when stress hits.
NutHow it works
Your money is split into 4 rule-driven sleeves: 20% growth (3x tech/QQQ and index funds), 40% bonds (switching between long/short Treasurys or T‑bills), 9% volatility carry, 31% “black swan” hedges/dip-buys. Rules use trend lines (moving averages) and a “hot/cold” gauge (RSI) to add risk in uptrends, hedge or go to T‑bills when stress rises, and buy oversold bounces.
CheckmarkValue prop
Four-sleeve, rules-based strategy blends growth, bonds momentum, volatility carry and tail hedges. Out-of-sample: ~19.3% annualized return with Calmar ~0.93, offering diversified risk management that complements the S&P 500 across regimes.

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.
