About

A daily, rules-driven blend that toggles among growth, bonds/cash, hedges, and diversifiers using simple “hot/cold” and trend checks on major ETFs. It adds risk when trends are healthy, hedges when markets look too hot, and leans on KMLM for diversification.
NutHow it works
Daily, rule-based shifts between offense (QQQ/TQQQ, TECL, SOXL), defense (TLT/TMF, cash BIL/SHV), hedges (PSQ/SQQQ, VIXY/UVXY), and diversifiers (KMLM, GLD, BTAL, EM via EEM/EDC/EDZ; utilities VPU/XLU). Signals: RSI (a 0–100 “hot/cold” meter), trend lines (moving averages), and recent return. When stocks run hot it hedges; when washed‑out or trending up it adds risk; otherwise it prefers bonds/cash. KMLM’s trend helps decide when to favor or fade 3x tech.
CheckmarkValue prop
Regime-based, rules-driven blend across tech, bonds, hedges and diversifiers. Out-of-sample return ~17% p.a., Sharpe ~0.64, Calmar ~0.95—lower raw return than SPY, but provides diversification and risk controls to complement equities.

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.
