About

A rules‑driven, multi‑asset portfolio that replaces plain S&P 500 exposure with a tactical core and layered hedges. It rides uptrends, buys controlled dips, shifts to bonds/commodities or cash when risk rises, and can short in bear markets.
NutHow it works
It’s a daily‑rebalanced, rules‑based portfolio. First it checks trend (is price above a long average?). Then it gauges “heat” with RSI (hot >80 = too frothy; cold <30–35 = washed out). It buys leaders in uptrends, buys small dips when very oversold, and parks in T‑bills (SHV/SHY) or hedges (SH/PSQ, VIXY/UVXY) when risk rises. Tools used: QQQ/XLK (big tech), TLT/TMF/TMV (long Treasuries), GLD (gold), DBC/DBA/DBO/FCG/XLE (commodities/energy), SVXY/VIXY/UVXY (vol), SH/PSQ (shorts).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this rules-based, multi-asset strategy cuts drawdown (12.9% vs SPY 18.8%), lowers beta, and smooths returns. Calmar 1.14 signals stronger risk-adjusted resilience with hedges, offering downside protection plus upside capture vs SPX.

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.
