About

A daily, rules-based strategy: buy short-term dips in leveraged tech/growth when conditions are calm; when bonds weaken or rates/risk rise, rotate to defense (USD, gold, Treasuries, defensive stocks, or inverse trades).
NutHow it works
Daily:• Regime: If bonds (AGG) gained over 60 days → Risk ON; else Risk OFF.• Risk ON: Check volatility heat (UVXY RSI = hot/cold). If calm, buy the biggest short‑term dips in tech/growth (3x NASDAQ/S&P, semis). If hot, either hold the calmer of long or short Treasuries (TMF/TMV) or buy two beaten‑down picks incl. commodities.• Risk OFF: If rates rising (TLT < cash), hold US dollar plus either short NASDAQ or short Treasuries; if falling, hold gold, long Treasuries, and defensive stocks. Rebalance daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~20.66% with a daily risk-on/off regime that captures leveraged tech gains in calm markets and shifts to USD/gold/treasuries when volatility or rates rise. Sharpe ~0.63; Calmar ~0.24— adds diversification beyond the S&P.

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.
