NutHow it works
- It looks at Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), the two largest cryptocurrencies. - Each week, it checks which one went up more over the last 5 days (about a week). - It then puts 100% of the portfolio into that coin until the next weekly check.

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.
