About

Aggressive, rules-based switcher: buy 3x tech on dips, fade overheated rips with bearish/fear funds, and move to VIX/bond-driven defenses in panics. Heavy tech, volatility, and Treasury exposure; very high risk.
NutHow it works
It’s a rule-based switch. In calm uptrends it rides turbo-charged tech funds (like 3x Nasdaq/tech). On quick dips it buys those dips. If prices rip too fast or fear spikes, it flips to bearish or “fear” funds. When bonds look stronger than stocks, it shifts to a defensive mix of volatility funds. Within each sleeve it picks the option that’s been steadier lately. Very high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Targets higher growth: out-of-sample annualized return 20.84% vs S&P 19.05%, with active tech leverage and crisis hedges. Expect higher upside in bull trends but tolerate deeper drawdowns (~48% vs 19%), suitable for aggressive, long-horizon investors.

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.
