About

A daily, rules-based switcher across U.S. tech, China/EM, Treasuries, commodities (oil/nat gas), and VIX hedges. It rides uptrends, cuts risk when overheated or weak, and uses some leveraged/inverse ETFs to press views or hedge fast.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks three things: trend (price vs its average), heat/pressure (RSI—a gauge of how fast price just rose/fell), and market “fear” (VIX ETFs). In calm uptrends it owns growth stocks or strong commodities/energy. When things look overheated or turn down, it shifts to Treasuries, cash, short funds, or VIX hedges. It also times bonds and oil/gas.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this rules-based, multi-asset strategy offers diversification with beta ~0.71, Calmar ~3.49 and ~20.6% annualized return, using bonds, volatility hedges and commodities to dampen swings versus the S&P 500’s pure equity risk.

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.
