About

A rule-driven “super portfolio” that rides tech in calm uptrends, buys dips, hedges or shorts when markets look overheated, and shifts to cash/treasuries/dollar/gold or managed‑futures when risk spikes. Uses many ETFs, including leveraged ones.
NutHow it works
It checks trend (is SPY above its 200‑day average?) and fear (VIX). Calm/uptrend → ride strong tech/semis and leaders (Apple, Nvidia, Amazon) via leveraged funds (TQQQ, SOXL). Selloffs (RSI very low) → buy dips; overheated (RSI high) → hedge with volatility (UVXY/VIXY) or short (SQQQ). If risk rises, park in T‑Bills (BIL/SHV), Treasuries (IEF/TLT), dollar (UUP), gold (GLD), or diversifiers like KMLM (managed‑futures). It runs many mini‑systems and tilts to recent winners. RSI = a simple hot/cold score.
CheckmarkValue prop
Tech-led, rule-based strategy delivering ~42.8% out-of-sample annualized return vs the S&P’s ~18.5%, using trend riding, dip buying, and hedges (bonds/cash/futures). Diversified and responsive, with higher drawdowns.

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.
