About

Switches between offense and defense. In uptrends it leans into a 3x S&P 500 fund; in weak markets it shifts to a hedge mix of commodities, Treasuries/cash, strong USD, utilities or even inverse tech. Uses multiple timeframes and risk scaling.
NutHow it works
It runs 3 quick trend checks (25/50/75-day vs 200-day on the S&P 500). If trend is up, it blends 7 timeframes; when stocks beat a defensive gauge, it buys UPRO (3x S&P 500). If not, it holds a hedge basket (commodities, loans/T‑bills, USD/FRNs). If trend is down, it rotates among long Treasuries, inverse/long tech, and utilities or gold, based on short-term strength. Position sizes are scaled to be steadier.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers superior risk-adjusted performance: lower max drawdown (≈14% vs 18.8%), higher Calmar (~1.47), and robust risk controls, with ~20.5% annualized return versus SPY’s 22.6% but with a smoother ride.

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.
