About

A trend-based, tech-tilted strategy. In uptrends, it loads into the strongest tech/AI stocks and tech ETFs. In downtrends, it rotates into the 3 best-performing defensive ETFs (bonds, gold/silver, utilities, etc.). Rebalanced daily.
NutHow it works
First it checks trend: is the S&P 500 (SPY) above its 200‑day average? - If below: defensive. Equally own the 3 best over the last 2–3 months from: USMV (low‑vol stocks), XLU (utilities), BND/IEF (bonds), GLD/SLV (gold/silver), VNQ (real estate), VOO/VTI (broad stocks). - If above: offensive. Put 75% in the 3 strongest tech/AI stocks (NVDA, MSFT, META, GOOG, TSLA, AMD) and 25% in the 2 strongest tech ETFs (VGT, SOXX, BOTZ, ROBO). Rebalanced daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: ~40% annualized return vs S&P ~21%, Sharpe ~1.25, Calmar ~1.31, beta ~0.65. While max drawdown is higher (~31%), regime-switching tech momentum plus defensive hedges aim for higher, more efficient upside than the S&P.

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.
