About

Daily rules pick S&P 500, Nasdaq‑100, and small‑cap ETFs, scaling between 1x/2x/3x when trends are healthy and shifting to inverse funds, cash, and gold when volatility or drawdowns rise. Aims for higher returns with index‑like drawdowns.
NutHow it works
It owns broad U.S. stocks (S&P 500, Nasdaq‑100, small caps). It checks trend (price vs 200‑day average) and momentum (RSI: a 0–100 “heat gauge” of recent gains). In healthy trends (RSI ~40–75) it uses 3x/2x ETFs; if too hot or weak, it dials down to 2x/1x. If fear (VIX) jumps, it flips from short‑vol to long‑vol plus gold/silver and cash. In drops, it can use -1x hedges. Rotates into the two strongest markets.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~59.4% annual return vs SPY ~50.6%, Calmar ~5.45 (top risk-adjusted), beta ~0.73 (less market beta). Drawdowns may be larger (~11%), hedges/diversification aim for stronger long-term gains.

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.
