About

Daily, rules‑based portfolio: a steady core in SCHD + DBMF/KMLM, plus a tactical engine that switches among leveraged tech, bonds, commodities and volatility hedges using RSI, trend and short‑term moves to grow while cutting drawdowns.
NutHow it works
Two parts: 1) Core: SCHD (dividends) + DBMF/KMLM (managed‑futures). These trend‑followers can help in inflation or bear markets. 2) Engine (rebalanced daily): rotates among tech (TQQQ/TECL/SOXL), bonds (TMF/TMV), commodities (DBC/UCO), shorts (SQQQ/PSQ) and volatility (UVXY). It uses: • RSI = 0–100 “heat meter” (low=oversold, high=overbought) • Long‑term trend (200‑day average) • Recent % moves Low RSI → buy dips; very high RSI → hedge; below trend → de‑risk. Small add‑ons trade ARK/crypto.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe ~1.37 vs ~1.34, annualized return ~26% vs ~21%, drawdown ~18.6% (vs ~18.8%), beta ~0.90, positive alpha. Core SCHD + managed futures with a dynamic engine aims for higher growth and better downside protection than the 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.
