About

Rules-based portfolio that leans into leveraged tech and long Treasuries in calm uptrends, but flips to volatility hedges, dollar, gold, staples, anti-beta, or short exposures when markets overheat or sell off. Includes a momentum and crash-response module.
NutHow it works
It watches tech (QQQ), bonds (TLT), and volatility. When trends are calm/up, it buys leveraged Nasdaq and/or long Treasuries. When markets get too hot or crack, it shifts to crash hedges (VIX), the US dollar, gold, staples, anti-beta, or short bonds/stocks. A momentum sleeve picks recent winners.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 24.8% annualized return vs 22.3% for the S&P, 16.8% max drawdown vs 18.8%, and beta ~0.87—more upside with less market risk. Calmar ~1.48 signals strong risk-adjusted growth with built-in crash hedges and momentum.

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.
