About

A rules-based, multi-asset portfolio that rides tech-led uptrends, adds a small VIX hedge when markets look overheated, and shifts to bonds, cash, gold, or shorts in selloffs. Signals are simple: trend and overbought/oversold (RSI). Rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks trend and “heat.” Trend: is price above long-term average? Heat: RSI (0–100) showing how fast price moved; >80 = too hot, <30 = washed out. Uptrend: hold growth (QQQ/TQQQ). If overheated: add a fear hedge (VXX). Downtrend: shift to defense—Treasuries (TLT/TMF or TMV), cash (BIL), hedged/short funds (BTAL, PSQ/SQQQ), or gold/oil/commodities (GLD, DBO/DBC). It blends many sleeves to smooth shocks.
CheckmarkValue prop
Diversified, rule-based strategy with lower out-of-sample beta (~0.62) and Calmar ~1.28. It aims to smooth volatility and protect capital, offering helpful diversification alongside the S&P 500 even with more modest upside.

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.
