About

An ensemble that rotates into the best recent sub-strategies to ride trends, buy dips, and hedge extremes. It uses simple heat/trend signals and shifts among tech/energy, bonds, cash, and volatility hedges.
NutHow it works
It’s a “coach” that picks the 10 playbooks that have worked best lately, then follows their rules. Those rules do three things: 1) ride uptrends (own tech/energy via TQQQ/UPRO/XLE), 2) buy sharp dips (RSI is a 0–100 “heat meter”: low=washed out), 3) hedge when markets are overheated (RSI high) or fear spikes (use UVXY/VIXY), else sit in T‑Bills (BIL) or bonds (TLT/TMF).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample shows annualized return of 33.6% vs 17.5% for the S&P, Sharpe ~1.11 vs ~1.00, Calmar ~1.74, and positive alpha. An adaptive, trend-following ensemble that aims for higher upside with risk controls.

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.
