About

Equal-weight, 4-sleeve ETF strategy. A bond in each sleeve acts as a weather vane. If bonds look healthy, it trades aggressively (short when hot, 3x long after drops); otherwise it holds the plain ETF or that bond.
NutHow it works
Split equally into 4 sleeves: S&P 500, Nasdaq-100, small-caps, semiconductors. Each sleeve switches among the plain ETF (SPY/QQQ/IWM/SOXX), an inverse that goes up when that market falls (SH/PSQ/RWM/SOXS), a 3x bull for rebounds (SPXL/TQQQ/TNA/SOXL), or a bond (BIL=T-bills, TLT=20+yr, IEF=7-10yr, AGG=core). A short-term RSI heat gauge guides this: very hot -> inverse; very cold -> 3x bull. If the bond signal is weak, it favors the bond/plain ETF.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this 4-sleeve RSI strategy targets ~29% annual return vs ~22% for the S&P, with Calmar ~0.93 and Sharpe ~1.29. Higher upside and bond-guided risk controls, though drawdowns can be larger in downturns.

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.
