About

Monthly, buy the 4 of 7 income ETFs with the best ~40‑day performance, equal‑weighted. Most are covered‑call funds (high income, limited upside) plus SCHD/JEPI/DIVO for dividend and option‑income diversification.
NutHow it works
Once a month, look at 7 income‑focused stock ETFs (QYLD, RYLD, XYLD, QQQH, JEPI, SCHD, DIVO). Rank them by how much they gained over the last ~40 trading days (about 2 months). Buy the best 4 and split the money evenly until next month. Many hold big U.S. stocks and earn extra cash by selling call options (steady income but capped upside). SCHD is a dividend fund; JEPI/DIVO blend dividends and options.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: 10.74% annualized return with lower drawdown (13.05% vs SPY ~17%), Calmar 0.823 and Sharpe ~0.81. A rules-based income-ETF rotation delivering steady income and better downside protection than the S&P 500.

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.
