About

Two-sleeve portfolio: a tactical switch between a volatility hedge (VIXM) and a 3× tech fund (TECL) using a simple short-term strength test versus KMLM, plus a four-stock basket (LLY, NVO, COST, GE) sized by recent stability.
NutHow it works
The portfolio has two parts. Part A flips between two ETFs using a short-term “recent strength” score (RSI): VIXM (goes up when market fear jumps) or TECL (a 3× tech fund). If VIXM’s score is lower than a trend-following ETF (KMLM), it holds VIXM; otherwise TECL. Part B spreads the rest across Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Costco, and GE, giving more to stocks that have been steadier over ~20 days. It trades only when targets drift a lot (~10%).
CheckmarkValue prop
Diversification overlay to hedge volatility and reduce reliance on the S&P 500. Out-of-sample data show weaker risk-adjusted returns and larger drawdowns, so use as a risk-management ballast alongside a core equity holding.

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.
