About

If Bitcoin has strong recent gains (over +8% in 5 days), switch into an equal mix of seven smaller coins. If not, stay fully in Bitcoin. It’s a simple, trend‑following crypto toggle with no scheduled rebalancing.
NutHow it works
It checks how much Bitcoin (BTC) moved over the last 5 days. If BTC is up more than 8%, it splits money equally across seven smaller, higher‑risk coins: Aave (AAVE), Avalanche (AVAX), Chainlink (LINK), Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC), Polkadot (DOT), and Shiba Inu (SHIB). Otherwise it holds 100% BTC. It doesn’t rebalance on a schedule—only when that rule flips.
CheckmarkValue prop
Opportunity to beat the S&P by riding crypto upside: when BTC surges, you get an equal-weight altcoin basket; otherwise you stay in BTC. Out-of-sample: ~33.8% annualized return vs ~22.2% for SPY, with a Calmar ~0.80, higher but targeted risk.

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.
