About

A daily, rules-based sector rotator. It hunts for the strongest sector when markets are normal, buys beaten‑down sectors for short-term rebounds, and shifts to a volatility hedge (UVXY) when sectors run too hot. Often uses leveraged ETFs to amplify moves.
NutHow it works
Each day the model checks sectors of the U.S. stock market. 1) If any sector looks “too hot” (RSI>80), it goes defensive by buying UVXY (a volatility hedge). 2) If a sector looks “washed out” (RSI<30), it buys that sector for a bounce, often using a leveraged fund. 3) Otherwise, it owns the strongest recent sector.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this Sector Rotator offers far higher upside (79.7% annualized) with strong risk-adjusted power (Calmar 4.8) and positive alpha, using disciplined momentum and hedges—potentially greater long-run reward than the S&P 500, despite larger drawdowns.

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.
