About

Mostly stocks with a small bond cushion. Within the stock sleeve, it tilts toward the calmer of VOO (S&P 500) and JEPQ (Nasdaq names with options income) based on the last 90 days, aiming for smoother returns and extra income.
NutHow it works
- 90% goes to two stock funds: VOO (S&P 500) and JEPQ (big Nasdaq names with an options‑income overlay). The split favors the one that has been calmer over the last 90 days (less recent ups/downs gets more). - 10% goes to VGSH (short‑term US Treasuries) as a cushion. - No set rebalance schedule; intended to rebalance only if weights drift by about 10%.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: Sharpe 1.34 vs S&P 1.27, beta ~0.87, drawdown 17.8% vs 18.8%. Annualized return ~19.0% vs 20.3%, but with smoother, steadier gains and Calmar ~1.07.

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.
