About

A rules-based, trend-and-momentum strategy: if U.S. stocks trend up, hold the 4 strongest names from tech/ETFs/crypto; if not, rotate to bonds when strong, else gold and silver. Equal-weighted, rebalanced daily; concentrated and can be volatile.
NutHow it works
1) Check if the total U.S. stock market (VTI) is strong: price above its 30‑day average price. 2) If yes, buy the 4 recent winners (equal weight) from big tech (e.g., AAPL, NVDA, MSFT, TSLA), semis/robotics ETFs, miner ETFs, and crypto funds (Bitcoin/Ether). 3) If no, and bonds (BND) are strong, hold BND. Otherwise split into gold (IAU) and silver (SLV). Rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~69% with Sharpe ~1.66 and Calmar ~7.06, outperforming the S&P on risk-adjusted terms. A rules-based momentum strategy that rides tech rallies and shifts to bonds or metals in downturns to protect gains.

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.
