About

A tactical, low‑correlation sleeve that hedges when stocks look overheated and seeks rebounds when tech is washed out, rotating among volatility, long Treasuries, gold, the US dollar, EM stocks, and occasionally leveraged tech.
NutHow it works
RSI is a 0–100 recent‑strength score. Rules: • S&P hot (RSI>65) and growth red‑hot (>80): hedge via VIXY (vol), TMF (long Treasuries), BTAL (anti‑beta). • S&P hot only: hold the 3 “coldest” of VIXM/BTAL/EDV/SPLV. • S&P not hot and Nasdaq washed‑out (RSI<35): TQQQ + UUP + VWO. • Else: own the 3 strongest of SVXY/VIXM/GLD/VWO. Equal‑weight; low‑correlation hedge sleeve.
CheckmarkValue prop
Nearly on par with the S&P on annual returns (18.26% vs 18.32%) while delivering far lower downside (12.87% drawdown vs 18.76%) and a Calmar of 1.42. A low‑correlation hedge sleeve adds diversification and resilience to a core equity portfolio.

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.
