About

Fades extremes: buys “fear” (UVXY) when stocks look overheated, buys 3x equity rebounds when they’re washed out, and otherwise sits in a calmer, trend‑aware mix. Uses volatile, leveraged ETFs—expect big swings.
NutHow it works
It watches many “thermometers” of market heat. RSI is a 0–100 hot/cold gauge; >80 = overheated, <30 = washed‑out. • If heat is very high across major indexes/sectors, it buys UVXY (a fear‑spike hedge). • If heat is very low after sharp drops, it buys 3x tech/semis/S&P to catch rebounds. • Otherwise it holds dividend stocks and mixes in bonds, gold, dollar, or short‑vol based on trends (tech vs staples, SPY vs utilities, Treasuries). High risk.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this strategy delivers far higher risk-adjusted growth than the S&P: annualized return ~79% vs 22.5%, Sharpe ~1.75 vs ~1.41, Calmar ~3.38. It taps rebounds while hedging volatility, though drawdowns can be larger in stress regimes.

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.
