About

Rules-driven portfolio that leans into 3× growth when trends are strong, and shifts to bonds, dollar, gold, or hedges when risk rises. Uses trend, “hot/cold” (RSI), drawdowns, and volatility signals, plus a VIX-based crash sleeve. High risk.
NutHow it works
Money is split into sleeves that dial risk up or down. When stock trends are strong, it buys aggressive funds (often 3× tech/semis). When trends weaken, it rotates to bonds, gold, U.S. dollar, or market‑neutral funds. RSI = 0–100 hot/cold gauge; moving averages = trend; drawdown = recent fall. A crash sleeve buys VIX (UVXY) when markets look overheated or start sliding. Heavy use of leveraged/volatility ETFs—high risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample Sharpe ~1.09 and Calmar ~1.01 with ~21.0% annualized return vs S&P ~22.6%. A disciplined multi-sleeve trend strategy combines growth capture with crash hedges (VIX, bonds, gold) for strong risk-adjusted returns and diversification.

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.
