About

An all‑weather, Dragon‑inspired, multi‑asset strategy that rotates among stocks, Treasuries, gold, commodities, the U.S. dollar, and a small volatility hedge. Uses trend and “heat” signals to lean risk on/off and selectively deploy leveraged ETFs.
NutHow it works
Your money is split into 5 buckets: a small crash hedge (UVXY), a momentum sleeve that owns recent winners, a “fiat‑alts” sleeve (gold/commodities/USD), a growth‑stocks sleeve that shifts between aggressive tech and defensives, and a bonds sleeve that flips long/short based on rate trends. It uses trend filters (200‑day), a 0–100 “heat” score (RSI: high=too hot, low=washed‑out), and recent returns to go risk‑on/off. Rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~31.6% annualized return vs 22% for S&P; Sharpe ~1.79 vs ~1.35; max drawdown ~14.5% vs ~18.8%; Calmar ~2.17. Diversified, rules-based, dragon-inspired mix across stocks, bonds, gold/USD and volatility hedges for stronger risk-adjusted growth.

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.
