About

A daily, rules-based “trend and heat” strategy: hedge with inverse funds when markets run too hot, buy a small-cap/cyclical ETF basket when they’re washed out, and otherwise use trend filters with cash fallback to manage risk.
NutHow it works
Daily rules use RSI, a 0–100 heat meter of recent price moves, on major indexes/sectors. - Very hot → hedge with SH (short S&P 500) and EUM (short emerging markets), sized by volatility. - Very cold → buy a preset basket tilted to small-caps/financials/industrials/banks/innovation/defense (IWM, VB, SCHA, SPSM, IJR, XLF, XLI, KBWB, ARKK, XAR). - Otherwise, trend filters (SPY 125-day, QQQ 25-day) choose the basket vs PSQ (short Nasdaq) or cash-like SHV.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers higher risk-adjusted return and upside vs the S&P: Sharpe ~0.782 vs 0.774, annualized return ~14% vs ~13.8%, and positive alpha. A rules-based trend/hedge system aims to manage risk while pursuing growth.

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.
