About

A daily, tech‑tilted model that rotates among four mini‑strategies (broad tech, AAPL, AMZN, TSLA). Five different “voters” pick the strongest one each day. It can go long, short, hedge with volatility, or sit in T‑bills based on heat/trend signals.
NutHow it works
It splits the portfolio into five “voters.” Each day, every voter ranks four mini‑strategies (broad tech, Apple‑only, Amazon‑only, Tesla‑only) using a different yardstick (short‑term heat, recent trend/return, drawdown, volatility). It then puts ~99% of its slice into the winner and ~1% in T‑bills. Inside each mini‑strategy, simple rules switch between bullish, bearish, or cash using: market “hot/cold” (RSI), trend (moving averages), and stress gauges.
CheckmarkValue prop
This daily, tech-tilted rotation provides diversification and built-in hedges for a core S&P 500 portfolio. Note: out-of-sample results show negative returns and larger drawdowns vs the S&P, so use as a tactical sleeve rather than a core replacement.

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.
