About

A daily, rules‑driven swing strategy that toggles between leveraged tech/semis, VIX hedges, bond‑rate trades, and occasional crypto/commodity/currency plays. Seeks near‑zero market beta with high upside, but carries very high risk and large swings.
NutHow it works
Daily it checks if stocks look overheated or oversold (a simple speedometer called RSI). Hot = buy “fear” (VIX funds) or go short; Washed‑out + bond OK = buy fast‑moving tech/semis. Bonds set the backdrop: rising rates → TMV; falling rates → TMF; this flips offense/defense. It also “surfs” recent winners/losers across tech/semis, oil, the dollar, Brazil/India, and crypto proxies. Goal: big upside with hedges that keep market exposure near zero; expect big swings.
CheckmarkValue prop
Near-zero-beta, diversified multi-asset strategy that hedges volatility and rate risk to diversify a stock portfolio. Out-of-sample Sharpe ~0.95, Calmar ~0.78, with ~0.75x SPY beta—slightly lower upside but more resilience during market swings.

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.
