About

A fast, tactical system that tries to catch volatility spikes and snap‑back rallies. It flips between UVXY (fear), oversold 3× equity funds (risk‑on), and KMLM managed futures as a diversifier, with occasional short‑tech hedges. Very active and high risk.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks a “hot/cold” score (RSI, 0–100) on many stock/sector funds. If any are very hot (>~80), it buys UVXY, which jumps when market fear spikes. If fear already spiked, it shifts to VIXM or a bull S&P fund. If nothing is hot, it buys what’s most washed‑out (<~30) among 3× tech/semis/biotech/S&P. If none are washed‑out, it compares them to KMLM (a trend‑following managed‑futures fund) and either holds KMLM or briefly shorts tech.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy beats the S&P on risk-adjusted return: Sharpe ~1.10, Calmar ~1.54, ~76% annualized vs ~18%. Diversified volatility timing + managed futures seek bigger upside; expect larger drawdowns in stress markets.

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.
