About

A rules-based blend of four sleeves: it buys leveraged tech and long Treasuries when trends are favorable, rotates into gold, dollar, Treasuries or cash when stress rises, and selectively buys sharp dips. Uses trend, RSI, momentum, and crash signals.
NutHow it works
Four sleeves: (1) short-term tech/volatility timer, (2) 4‑month momentum in stocks/bonds/gold/dollar/commodities/cash, (3) dip‑buyer that pairs 3x tech (TQQQ/TECL/UPRO/SPXL) with 3x Treasuries (TMF) and safe assets, (4) macro switch with a crash trigger. Signals: trend (200‑day avg), an overbought/oversold score (RSI 0–100), recent 10‑day drops, and volatility. Tickers: UVXY=volatility, SQQQ/TBF=shorts, GLD=gold, UUP=dollar, TLT/TMF=long Treas., SPY/QQQ=stocks, SHY/SHV/BSV/IEI/TIP=safe bonds.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~33% annualized return vs SPY ~22%, from a rules-based, multi-sleeve mix (leveraged tech, bonds, gold, USD) with crash protection. Expect higher drawdowns (~25% vs ~19%), but strong risk-adjusted potential (Calmar ~1.34).

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.
