About

An adaptive, rules‑based portfolio: ride tech-led uptrends with leverage, rotate into bonds, commodities, and crash hedges when risk rises, plus a small crypto sleeve. Seeks growth with drawdown control, but uses high‑risk leveraged and volatility ETFs.
NutHow it works
It’s a rules-based, “go with the trend, hide in storms” portfolio. - If the S&P 500 is weak, it holds diversifiers (BTAL, DBMF). If strong, it holds broad U.S. stocks (VTI). - In uptrends it rides tech/semis with 3× funds (TQQQ/TECL/SOXL). If prices overheat or drop fast, it shifts to T‑bills (BIL/SHV) or hedges (SQQQ/UVXY). - Bonds flip between long Treasuries (TLT/TMF) and cash/short bonds (TMV) as rates fall/rise. - It also follows trends in commodities (DBC, GLD, energy, ag) and the U.S. dollar (UUP). - A “hot/cold” meter (RSI) and moving averages guide entries/exits; VIX spikes trigger short‑term protection. Key funds (examples): VTI=total U.S.; QQQ=big tech; TQQQ/TECL/SOXL=3× versions; BIL/SHV=T‑bills; TLT/TMF/TMV=long/3×/−3× Treasuries; DBMF=managed futures; BTAL=market‑neutral; UVXY/VIXY/SVXY=volatility; GLD=gold; DBC=commodities; XLE/XOP=energy; DBA=ag; UUP=U.S. dollar; BITW=crypto. Note: Uses leveraged/volatility ETFs—high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers better risk control than the S&P: lower max drawdown (2.07% vs 2.53%), negative SPY beta for diversification, and a Calmar ~0.90, with steady risk-adjusted upside during tech uptrends.

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.
