About

Equal 25% in SPY, QQQ, DIA, and Apple, then buy‑and‑hold. Strong tilt to Apple and mega‑cap tech because Apple is also inside those ETFs. No rebalancing; weights drift with performance.
NutHow it works
It splits your money 4 ways (25% each): SPY (tracks 500 of the biggest US companies), QQQ (tracks 100 large Nasdaq companies, heavy in tech), DIA (tracks 30 blue‑chip US firms), and AAPL (Apple). It buys and holds—no rebalancing. Because Apple is also inside SPY/QQQ/DIA, the portfolio leans heavily toward Apple and big US tech. Over time the mix drifts; the 5% corridor setting isn’t used.
CheckmarkValue prop
Simple buy-and-hold 4-way split (SPY/QQQ/DIA/AAPL) with a mega-cap tilt and no rebalancing. Out-of-sample Calmar ~1.07 and tech-led growth offer upside vs. the S&P 500, with low maintenance.

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.
