About

Broadly diversified core plus a rules-based sleeve: buy tech (QLD) on dips, rotate to Treasuries/cash when volatility spikes, and use simple trend checks to stay cautious. Holds gold, real estate, USD, and global stocks for balance.
NutHow it works
Mix of US/global stocks, Treasuries (short–long, plus inflation‑protected), gold, real estate, and the US dollar. A rules sleeve switches among: QLD (2× Nasdaq), Treasuries (IEF/TLT), defensive stock funds (XLP, VIG), or cash (BIL). It buys dips when QLD looks oversold (RSI = recent‑strength gauge), and goes risk‑off when short‑term volatility in QQQ/SPY jumps. Simple trend checks (bonds vs a “short Nasdaq” fund PSQ) decide QLD vs cash.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample performance shows superior risk-adjusted results vs the S&P: Sharpe ~2.05, Calmar ~2.40, max drawdown ~6% vs ~19%, and ~14.6% annualized return with lower beta. Diversified core plus a disciplined, rules-based tactical sleeve.

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.
