About

A daily, tactical mix that buys 3x tech when conditions are calm, hedges with VIX and commodities when markets run hot, uses KMLM (managed‑futures) as a trend filter, and adds a momentum‑based bitcoin sleeve.
NutHow it works
Daily it checks trend (200‑day average) and “heat” (RSI). RSI is a 0–100 speedometer of recent buying vs selling; high = hot, low = cold. Hot/overbought: it scales into volatility hedges (VXX) or gold/commodities. Calm/oversold: it buys growth via 3x tech/Nasdaq funds. It also compares tech to KMLM (a trend‑following futures ETF); if KMLM looks stronger, it goes defensive/short. Side sleeves time bonds, EM, oil, nat‑gas. A bitcoin sleeve buys GBTC on strength. Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample Sharpe 2.95 vs SPY 2.47; annualized return 66% vs 29%; Calmar 10.3; beta ~0.57. A hedged, multi-asset, trend-driven strategy delivering higher risk-adjusted returns and smoother drawdowns than the S&P 500.

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.
