About

Holds one asset at a time. In calm markets it owns the strongest of chips, energy, commodities, or 2x S&P 500. If market fear spikes, it flips into a VIX-linked ETF (VIXM) to try to benefit from crashes. High-conviction, high-volatility approach.
NutHow it works
It always holds just one thing. • Panic mode: If VIXM (a volatility ETF that tends to jump when market fear surges) shows a high “speed-of-move” score (RSI) over 40 days (>69), it buys VIXM. • Otherwise: It buys the single best performer over ~90 days among SOXX (chip ETF), NVDA/AMD (chip stocks), SSO (2x S&P 500), DBC (broad commodities), XLE (energy), or ENPH (solar). It switches only when the signal changes.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: ~63% annualized return vs ~23% for SPY; Calmar ~1.40. A 100% single-asset rotation plus a volatility hedge (VIXM) aims for big upside with tail-risk protection during crashes.

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.
