About

Switches between SPY and BIL. If a 10‑day RSI shows SPY or key sectors/QQQ are “too hot” (~>79–80; 75 for staples), it steps to T‑bills; otherwise it holds SPY. Goal: sidestep short-term pullbacks.
NutHow it works
Daily, it holds SPY (S&P 500) unless a short‑term heat gauge called RSI (scores 0–100 from the last ~10 days) says things are extremely hot. If RSI tops set levels for SPY (80) or for QQQ (79), VOX (79), XLK (79), XLP (75), or XLF (80), it parks in BIL (T‑bills). No “too hot” signal? Stay in SPY. Why these: SPY=market; QQQ/XLK=big tech; VOX=Alphabet/Meta; XLP=staples; XLF=banks.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample Sharpe ~1.29 and Calmar ~2.09 deliver near-SPY upside (26% annualized) with disciplined risk control: exits to cash when overheated leadership emerges, limiting drawdown (~12.46%) while preserving most gains vs 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.
