About

A daily, rules‑based switcher. It times stock exposure with trend and “too hot/too cold” checks, parks in T‑bills when overheated, buys dips with 2x funds, shifts to diversifiers when KMLM leads, and favors the sleeve with the gentlest recent loss.
NutHow it works
Daily it picks the sub‑strategy with the smallest 5‑day loss. Then: - Trend: S&P above 200‑day avg = risk‑on; below = defensive. - RSI = a 0–100 “heat” score. > ~79 (too hot) → T‑bills (SGOV/SHV). < ~30 (washed out) → buy 2x stock funds (QLD/SPUU). - Tech vs KMLM (managed‑futures): if tech leads, hold stocks; if KMLM leads, use diversifiers (managed futures, long/short, currencies). - VIXM hot → more cash/VIX hedge; EM sleeve (EEM/EEV) only when inflation (RINF) rises and bonds beat stocks. - Swaps among look‑alike ETFs to help with wash‑sale taxes.
CheckmarkValue prop

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.
