About

Tactical S&P 500 approach: in uptrends, own the 5 strongest large-cap stocks; if the market looks overheated, flip to SH (inverse S&P). In downtrends, chase short-term strength; if selling persists, hold SH. Equal-weight, adjust on signals.
NutHow it works
Universe: SPY plus the 100 biggest S&P 500 stocks. First it checks the market's trend: is SPY above its 200-day average? If yes and not overheated (RSI>80 = a 'too hot' reading), it buys the 5 strongest names over the last 90 days, equally weighted. If overheated, it holds SH, an ETF that rises when the S&P falls. If not in an uptrend, it uses 20/10/5/2-day strength to pick 5 short-term leaders; if weakness persists it moves to SH. Broad U.S. sector exposure; often tech-heavy when tech leads.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~7.95 vs SPY ~5.20; higher alpha and Calmar efficiency. A tactical, momentum-driven approach that buys top 5 leaders in uptrends and uses SH hedges in heat or downturns, aiming to outperform the S&P on risk-adjusted terms.

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.
