About

A fast‑moving, rules‑based portfolio: ride strong tech trends (TQQQ, SOXL, NVDA 2x), but when fear or overheating shows up, rotate to cash/T‑bills, Treasuries, market‑neutral, managed futures (KMLM), or even short/volatility funds to defend or profit on pullbacks.
NutHow it works
It watches three gauges: trend (price vs 20–200 day averages), heat (RSI: 0–100; under ~30 is a “dip,” over ~80 is “too hot”), and fear (VIX). In uptrends it owns the strongest tech/semis (often via leveraged funds). If heat or fear spike, it moves to T‑bills/Treasuries, BTAL, or even bear/volatility funds. KMLM adds a zig‑when‑stocks‑zag diversifier.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample return ~30% vs S&P ~17.5%; a rules-based, tech‑driven strategy that leverages upside in trends while using rapid hedges (cash, Treasuries, KMLM/BTAL, volatility) to manage risk.

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.
