About

A rules-based “cockpit” that buys leveraged growth on dips, rides trends in bonds/energy, and flips to cash or volatility hedges when markets overheat or crack. Dozens of small bots use trend, overbought/oversold, volatility, and drawdown signals.
NutHow it works
It watches 4 dials: trend (price vs moving averages), heat (RSI: too hot/too cold), turbulence (volatility), and damage (recent drops). - Trend up + dip: buy growth (often 2x/3x tech/S&P like TQQQ/UPRO/SOXL). - Too hot: hedge with volatility (UVXY/VIXY) or short funds. - Trend down: hold cash/defensives (BIL, Treasuries, GLD, USDU) or short. - Oil up: own XLE/DIG/UCO; oil down: DUG/bonds. It blends many small bots and leans toward those working best lately.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~33.6% annual return vs 17.5% for S&P, Sharpe ~1.11 vs ~1.00, Calmar ~1.74. A rules-based mix of trend, hedges and rotations for higher risk-adjusted growth and tighter drawdown control.

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.
