About

A daily, tactical portfolio that dials stock risk up or down using simple overbought/oversold and trend gauges, hedges with VIX, Treasuries, and cash, and buys tech/semiconductor dips when trends are healthy; rotates into gold and the dollar when needed.
NutHow it works
Every day it checks simple signals to judge heat and trend: RSI (recent up‑vs‑down days) and moving averages (trend), plus market stress (VIX). If stocks look overheated, it adds shock absorbers like VIXY (volatility), BTAL (defensive), or BIL (T‑Bills). If sold off but trend is ok, it buys dips in tech/semis via TQQQ/TECL/SOXL; if not, it parks in Treasuries (TLT/TMF), gold (GLD), or the dollar (UUP). Core gauges use SPY/QQQ; sector and EM checks fine‑tune risk. Rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: lower drawdown (~12% vs SPY's ~18.8%), Calmar ~0.80, Sharpe ~0.68, plus hedging and dip-buying tech, delivering a more resilient, diversified equity sleeve vs 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.
