About

Weekly rotation among S&P 500 (2x), long Treasuries (3x), gold, and the US dollar. Picks the two strongest over ~6 months and weights the steadier one more. A higher‑octane, trend‑following mix that can swing widely due to leverage.
NutHow it works
Each week it looks back ~6 months at four choices: 1) US stocks (SSO = 2x S&P 500), 2) long US Treasuries (TMF = 3x), 3) gold (GLD), 4) the US dollar (UUP). It buys the two that did best, then splits money, giving more to the calmer one based on the last ~1 month.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: Sharpe 1.53 vs SPY 1.30, drawdown 8.6% vs 18.8%, annualized return ~20.6% vs SPY ~20.7%. Weekly rotation among leveraged assets (SSO, TMF, GLD, UUP) seeks higher risk-adjusted gains with stronger downside protection.

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.
