About

Rule-based global rotation. Finds the calmest of US, Europe, China, or Emerging Markets, then goes long (sometimes 2x/3x), flips to a bear ETF if overheated, or parks in bonds when conditions look rough.
NutHow it works
This 60% sleeve rotates among four regions—US (SPY), Europe (EZU), China (MCHI), and Emerging Markets (EEM)—plus their levered bull funds (SSO/SPXL; UPV/EURL; CHAU/YINN), bear funds (SH/EPV/YXI/EUM), and bonds (SHY, BND, BNDX, EBND, CBON). It first picks the calmest region (lowest 80‑day volatility or drawdown). Then, if recent drops are small and price isn’t too hot (RSI: 0–100 heat gauge), it buys stocks (sometimes 2x/3x). If overheated it shorts; if shaky it parks in Treasuries.
CheckmarkValue prop
Global, rule-based rotation diversifies beyond the S&P with lower beta (~0.73), built-in hedges (bear ETFs and bonds), and selective 2x–3x leverage in calm markets. It aims for steadier risk-adjusted upside and resilience during drawdowns.

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.
