About

Daily, it toggles between aggressive tech exposure (mostly TQQQ) and defense (DBMF, gold, or inverse funds) using trend and momentum of stocks and bonds. It aims to ride tech uptrends and cut risk when markets overheat, whipsaw, or break trend.
NutHow it works
Each day it decides risk-on or risk-off. If the S&P 500 is trending up (price above its 200-day average), it mainly owns TQQQ (a 3x tech-heavy fund). If momentum looks weak or too hot, it can switch quickly to gold (GLD), a managed‑futures fund (DBMF), or inverse funds. It uses simple gauges: RSI (a 0–100 heat meter), recent returns, and 20-day averages. It also checks bonds and credit (BND/IEF/CORP vs T‑bills) and growth vs utilities to judge risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Dynamic regime-based strategy chasing tech uptrends with hedges. Out-of-sample return ~43.8% vs S&P 17.8%; Sharpe ~0.86; Calmar ~0.97. Accepts higher stress drawdowns (~45%) for strong risk-adjusted upside and trend-following resilience.

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.
