About

Daily tactical plan: move to T‑bills when stocks run too hot, buy Tech on washouts or when falling yields help, favor Staples (and sometimes Oil) in uptrends, and use an inverse Nasdaq ETF in downtrends.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks a few market thermometers. - If the Nasdaq-100 or S&P 500 look extremely hot short term, it parks in T‑bills (BIL). - If the Nasdaq looks washed out, it buys Technology (XLK). - If Treasury bonds’ recent strength beats a bearish Nasdaq gauge, it buys XLK. - Else, if the S&P 500 is in a long‑term uptrend, it holds Consumer Staples (XLP) and, if stronger, Oil (DBO). - Otherwise it holds PSQ, an ETF that rises when the Nasdaq falls.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample edge: 29.42% annualized vs 17.17% for S&P, Sharpe 1.13 vs 0.96, lower drawdown (16.32% vs 18.76%), and beta ~0.94. Daily tactical shifts aim for higher returns with built-in downside protection.

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.
