About

Switches among steady mega‑cap stocks, safe‑haven ETFs (short munis, USD, Treasuries, gold), or a volatility‑spike trade (UVXY) using a fear gauge (UVXY) and the S&P trend (UPRO). Inverse‑vol sizing favors calmer assets. Uses leveraged ETFs; high risk.
NutHow it works
Two gauges: UVXY (fear ETF) and UPRO (3× S&P proxy). RSI=0–100 heat; MA=avg price. - If fear is hot (UVXY RSI>65) and rising (6d>200d) and stocks not washed out (UPRO RSI>35): buy UVXY. If hot but not rising: hold SUB/UUP/SHY (short muni, USD, 1–3y Treasuries). - Else, if trend down (UPRO<200d MA): rotate into SUB/UUP/SHY/UGL (2× gold)/TMF/TYD (lev. Treasuries). - If trend up: own 10 steadier mega‑caps (MSFT, AAPL, etc.), more weight to calmer names (inverse‑vol).
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this regime-switching strategy outperforms the S&P: ~34.5% vs ~19.3% annualized return; Sharpe 1.33 vs 1.12; Calmar 1.83; drawdowns ~19%—similar to SPY but with much more upside.

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.
