About

Daily real-estate sector strategy. Uses a 10‑day momentum score on XLRE: very weak → buys 2× bull URE; very strong → buys −3× bear DRV; otherwise holds XLRE. Aims to buy dips/sell spikes. Uses leveraged ETFs, so risk is high.
NutHow it works
What it watches: XLRE, an ETF of U.S. real estate stocks/REITs. Each day it calculates a 10‑day “speedometer” (RSI, 0–100). Low = it fell hard recently; high = it ran up fast. - If score < 30: buy URE (a 2× bullish real‑estate ETF) for a bounce. - If score > 71: buy DRV (a −3× bearish real‑estate ETF) for a pullback. - Otherwise: hold XLRE. Rebalanced daily. Leveraged ETFs magnify both gains and losses.
CheckmarkValue prop
Diversified REIT momentum strategy with ~0.5x S&P 500 beta. Out-of-sample metrics show solid risk-adjusted performance (Calmar ~0.41, Sharpe ~0.54) and REIT diversification to complement 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.
