About

Daily, it chases tech when semiconductors lead and shifts to hedges when markets look too hot or too shaky. Uses a simple short‑term “heat score” (RSI) and rotates among volatility, bonds, managed futures, and the US dollar.
NutHow it works
Checks markets daily with a short‑term “heat score” (RSI: 0–100). If semiconductors (SMH) are hotter than defensive trend/hedge funds (WTMF managed‑futures, FTLS long/short), it goes risk‑on with leveraged tech (TQQQ/TECL). If markets look overheated, it buys volatility protection (UVXY). If very weak, it buys for a rebound (TQQQ) or flips to defense (SQQQ or bonds). Otherwise it rotates into the best of TMF/TMV, SVXY/VIXM, FTLS, KMLM (managed futures), or UUP (US dollar).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample annualized return ~39% vs S&P’s single-digit gains, with Calmar ~1.24 and positive alpha. Capitalizes on tech leadership and macro trends for outsized upside; expect larger drawdowns (~31%), but diversification helps manage 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.
