About

Oil‑centric, daily‑tactical portfolio that owns oil ETFs in uptrends, rotates to top energy stocks or safe havens (Treasuries, cash, gold, dollar) in downturns. Includes a leveraged sleeve (UCO) and hedges; uses simple trend/momentum rules.
NutHow it works
It’s a daily, oil‑focused trend strategy. When oil trends up, it buys oil funds (mainly OILK or UCO). When momentum weakens or long‑term trend is down, it shifts to strong energy stocks or to safe havens (Treasuries, cash, gold, dollar). It may hedge or buy dips.
CheckmarkValue prop
Oil-focused trend strategy with hedges and safe-haven rotations. Seeks energy-cycle upside while dialing down SPY risk through Treasuries, cash, and gold—offering diversification and risk control, even though OOS returns may lag SPY.

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.
