About

A daily, rules‑based “risk switch” that rotates between 3× stock ETFs in uptrends and hedges (volatility, anti‑beta, inverse, bonds/cash) in downtrends. It uses RSI, moving averages, drawdown triggers, and bond‑vs‑stock strength to decide when to press or protect.
NutHow it works
It watches five market lenses (Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq‑100, Tech, Semis). RSI is a 0–100 “speedometer” of recent up vs down days; >50 = uptrend, >80 hot, <30 washed‑out. Uptrend: own the index or its 3× version if short‑term momentum is healthy; if too hot, briefly hedge (VIXY). Downtrend: only buy dips if very oversold; otherwise shift to defenses (BTAL, inverse ETFs, bonds/cash). Bond‑vs‑stock and 200‑day trend checks fine‑tune risk. It picks the best‑behaving lenses and rebalances daily.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample, this regime-switching strategy delivers ~53.9% annualized return vs SPY ~21.7%, with Sharpe ~1.28 and Calmar ~2.27. It leverages uptrends and hedges downturns for stronger risk-adjusted gains—though drawdowns can be larger.

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.
