About

A tactical, signal‑driven system that buys volatility after sharp stock run‑ups, buys leveraged sector funds after sharp sell‑offs, and otherwise parks in KMLM (managed futures) when there’s no clear edge. Built for quick reversals; high risk and volatility.
NutHow it works
It watches many stock and sector funds for short‑term “too hot/too cold” readings (via RSI, a simple speedometer for recent price moves). - If things look overheated, it briefly buys a volatility fund (UVXY). - If things look washed‑out, it buys leveraged sector funds for a bounce. - If no clear setup, it compares short‑term strength to KMLM (a managed‑futures fund) and either “parks” in KMLM or takes a small tactical shot (e.g., tech or volatility). Trades only when signals trigger; expect big swings.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~75% annualized return vs SPY ~18%; Sharpe ~1.10 and Calmar ~1.5. Diversified KMLM core adds risk control and upside potential, but expect higher volatility and drawdowns in stressed 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.
